Description of the problem | Truck would idle extremely bad, when you cut it off it wouldn't start. This started happening on friday, december 31, 2010. I took the truck to firestone and they run a diagnostic test which at the time did not show the throttle body problem because the "check engine" light was not on at the time. However, firestone replaced the fuel filter, did a tune up and replaced the battery and removed the gas tank to clean it but this still did not resolve the problem and this cost me $369. The truck was then taken to a ford dealership and on the way there the "check engine" light did come on. The dealership advised us after the diagnostic test that we needed a throttle body and electronic egr valve which will cost $1330. 00. |
