My car tonight dropped a bomb on me...it matains 300-400rpm while idaling, and dies when put into gear unless I hold the gas in. The car was fine driving too wrok, driving out to get lunch, and then suddenly this started as I left for the night...

My car is now stuck in springfield over night till I can meet a tow in the morning to take it to ford...whom may be the ones responcible, as I JUST got my 45k done a tank ago. Nothing obvious other then a smell of some nasty fluid cooking(couldn't find a leek try as I might) and the lack of idaling.

*goes off to destract himself from depression with snack food and video games because he can't sleep*

Go to the nearest dealership (if still under warrenty) or trans shop FAST!
My 03 SES Sport did the same thing, just got it back 4 days, a new torque converter, clutch packs (the new 04 version on both to boot) and a new set of half shafts.

BTW, Im back.
