Why does my 2003 Ford Taurus SE shake when idling?
So, my 2003 Ford Taurus SE has 170k on it. It started to run rough about a month ago. Took it to a shop where they told me it was running on 5 cylinders and misfiring. All injectors were replaced as well as spark plugs and coils. 15k miles ago my MAF sensor was replaced as well. What the shop did fixed my Ford for about a week. $550 later. And now it's doing something very strange. It drives just fine. When i'm going through my gears. But, for example, when I'm at a stop light my car is in gear but completely stopped. Its like it jerks itself around and shakes. I don't know if this is a misfire or what. But if I put it in neutral when I'm stopped it doesn't do it. Only when in gear. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate your help.
Most likely is a misfire
- Why won't my car stay idling? I just put a new fuel pump on my 1976 ford gran torino and it won't idle at all unless I fill the fuel bowl up and when I do that it will idle for a little bit and then when I start it up again it will idle for a little bit less then a little bit less and so on until it won't idle at all?
- What Ford Taurus bumpers (front or rear) would fit a 2003 ford Taurus ses? Looking around and seen someone with a 2004 front bumper on a 2003. Looks nice but curious if any other bumpers would fit? I installed new centennial edition headlights with Silver Star Ultra lights. here's what it looks like so far.
- Why do my rpms go up and down while idling? I drive a 1997 ford Mustang v6, when I'm in idle the rpm guage goes up and down between 1 and the half mark. I know it's not just the guage because the engine clearly is review up and down with it. Should I take it in somewhere?
- Why does my Ford Focus shake when maintaining 70 mph? I've got a 2007 Ford Focus hatchback. My husband did an oil change on it about month ago. Since then there's a vibration. Everything feels fine until you go 70 mph. While trying to maintain the speed the whole car shakes. It feels like it is about to stall, but doesn't or at least, hasn't yet. The shaking stops when accelerating or decelerating. Its an automatic and the engine light pops on and off. It only happens while trying to maintain speed in the 69-71mph range.
