| Description of the problem | Pulling out into hwy to cross traffic, car quit accelerating. Started "jumping" like out of gas. Was sitting crosswise in the road now, with cars coming from both directions, just kept pushing gas, and it'd move a few inches at a time. Finally got across into lane, and had to drive it like that to turn off a few hundred yards. Turned ignition off, and on, and was normal again. Has done this several times, yet ford says nothing is wrong. |
