Steph3n1 Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Sounds like you have a fouled out MAF or a bad TPS. It also could be the fuel filter if you've never changed it and you have over 100k miles then id go ahead and do that. Do any check engine lights come on?

Skullz Posted November 22, 2011 Report Share Posted November 22, 2011 Might want to check timing and see if it jumped a tooth as another possibility. Quote 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac.c Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 By the way it sound on one of your videos wshen you go to the exhaust. And you hear a ticking? Sound like it. Could be. Lifters are bad. Or. You spun a bearing or even its worn out. Had the same problem in the blazer a swhile back does your check engine blink only when you hit the gas. ? And does do it stay solid till you get over a certain rmp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBW Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 coil packs! 3800 series II motors like to kill them from time to time like Eric said, as for the timing, these are interference motors if it jumped time chances are it would bend the valves and smiley the pistons and only run for a short time, cat is possible but normally doesn't happen all of a sudden, if it is the cat REPLACE it, OBDII will insure poor performance and bad gas mileage if you remove/hollow the cat. jmo hope it helps Quote Kenwood KIV-BT900 Front Stage RF 400-4 Runs off dedicated 4 awg ofc RE 6.5 125.5.

95legwagon Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) isnt that the same engine thats in the bonnevilles? the 3100? if it is i would also check for a intake manifold leak..... those engines are known for it. usually when it goes it sucks in antifreeze and itll spin a bearing....but itll run kinda like that. also hows ur power steering pump? sounds kinda whiny lol js lifters are usually pretty noisy on those engines also so thats probably the ticking your hearing. i work @ south windsor auto parts (salvage yard) so i see these engines ALL the time. take it to autozone for a free check engine light diagnosis and see what the code says. its flashing so i would be a little worried about wasting too much time as things will get worse...... just my 2 cents -jarrid ps- let us know what happens! edit DUR- if i read ur sig i wouldve known it was a 3800 as its the 3.8 liter.... but still same design.....my thought doesnt change lol Edited November 23, 2011 by 95legwagon Quote i think there real i was looking through that guys stuff he sells and it looks like he finds stuff at auctions and just sells it Yea, it looks like someone got the mids about a month ago....shit.

EricM9104 Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Might want to check timing and see if it jumped a tooth as another possibility. I was thinking more ignition timing, but with a coilpack it'd use a crank or cam sensor. Also another thing to look into.
