- 2003 Ford Explorer XLT
I have a 2003 Explorer, with the 4.6 V8. When driving a steady pace, all is well. But when I get on it to pass someone, or put the truck in passing gear, and then I come to a complete stop at a light or whatnot, the truck's RPM's get so low that the truck shakes pretty hard for a few seconds, and then they jump back up high, then down low again. The motor doesn't ever stall, but it gets close. I recently cleaned the MAF, hoping that would solve the problem. I just got back from AutoZone and the gentleman there said he heard a faint whistle coming from around the throttle body. I have an appointment the day after tomorrow to have my mechanic look at it, but I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem & what they had to repair/replace.
