Help Please! Idle / Dieing Issues -FIXED!
My vehicle: 2001 Explorer Sport 4.0 2wd
It starts and idles fine. Usually idles around 900-1000 when first started and drops to 600-700 after a minute or two. After driving for a short time, the idle stays around 600 when stopped and in drive. When I shift to neutral or park, or sometimes shifting between drive and reverse, the motor dies. It will restart, but dies. Let it sit for a minute or two and it will restart and idle around 600 again.
There are no issues while driving or stopped and in drive.
May be a seperate issue, but when the AC is on, it sounds like the compressor cycles on and off very 5-10 seconds. The idle goes up and down each on / off cycle, in park and when stopped and in drive.
I've tried cleaning the MAF with contact cleaner. No change.
Thanks
