Thread: Engine stall

O on my way to work this morning I was coasting to a stop light and my engine stalled out, wouldn't crank over the first time, finally did the second time, get down the road to an overpass, let off the gas at the top and coasted down and stalled again, popped it in Neutral and started right back up, didn't do it any other time except when I coasted

Not to alarm you but my dad had a very similar problem a few months ago on his '05 Expedition. Would stall on him when he coasted and that was the only time. Turned out it was his throttle body and it had to be replaced because when coasting it would shut completely and kill the engine. Might want to get that checked out, not saying that this is your issue too, but it sounds similar.

Also the check engine light didn't come on until it had done it a couple of times. But start with Alex's recommendation first, cheaper and easier to fix.

Thanks guys, just did it again, but I feel like I'm on the right track now, was gonna check into the iac and my boss said check the throttle body position censor

If it's that 06 there is no IAC as it's build into the throttle body. You can't cleaning the throttle body and see if that helps. If not. It will require replacement.

Yeah it's an 06, guess I'll check into it, just cleaning the tb would help?!? If not I'll spend the cash and get a new one

You can get best deals on tousley ford parts.

Another guy from this forum, who I just drank a beer with lol, told me to check the module thing above the spare tire, I've heard other people talk bout it but I thought the truck would not run at all

Yup, it kept happening to my dad and I think that's what it was. Sometimes the electronics just go bad.
