Idle control valve makes the idle high and with foot off the accelerator car runs at 40-45 MPH. I disconnected the electrical plug to the valve and car runs great!

When the car is in drive, it jerks and hesitates while idling. If I put it in neutral, it's fine for the most part.

when i start the car it revs up on and off with out me hitting the pedal. also it stalled twice on me while i was on the highway exit ramp. rear three spark plugs are impossible to get to and the driver side door wouldn't lock with the remote locking device or the car lock button.

Rough Idle problem, be careful WRONG Idle Control valves IAC are being sold for this year model, that cause super high idles over 2,000 rpm then settles down. Looking inside it, it has a little brass shaft with a spring extending out. Check first before buying. I need to find a another source to purchase, the Ford dealer wanted 2 1/2 times more than the general parts store. My local Ford dealership didn't have the part in stock so I was not able to inspect it for not having the extended bass shaft.

My car stalled out, all the panel icons flashed when I was either braking and barely moving in traffic and when I would also turn on the heater. I thought it might be the fuel filter...and had it changed, but it was a minor expense.. The problem continues, though...will take it in to have the idel air bypass valve investigated. When I took it to the mechanic before he could not replicate the problem and only changed the fuel filter,because I insisted. I think I will take it to the dealership this time.
