Ford Escape 2001 v6?

Question

It's not starting right. It stalls out when i turn the key. It sounds like its about to start and then stalls. I have to give it gas in order to start. When i release the gas peddle it stalls. I just had the battery, spark plugs, pcv valve, gas filter, and iar filter replaced. Any know what it could be?

Answer 1

my 07 grand prix did this :(

it is most likely ur fuel injection system...

have you cleaned it out lately...

go and get some octane booster...

(i got the 0 to 60, its in an orange bottle)

pour it into the tank and make sure you fill the tank before you put it in there :)

drive the h**l out of it untill the tank get to 1/4 and then add more gas...

and then drive normally

it works great :)

or it did for my car...

i was at a dead stop and i got on the interstate and floored it from a dead stop to about 80 mph.. do this 3 times... it will get anything that is blocking the line out :)

i hope this helps

Answer 2

IAC motor. That's Idle air control motor. try tapping it with a  s***w driver handle and see if it  helps, if it does you will still need it replaced. not sure of the location due to not familiar with that model ford, but have seen it on quite a few others
