    I have a F150 V6 2001. I have been having idling issues for awhile. After I drive it 30 or so minutes I can come to a stop the idling goes up and down from 600 rpm to 500 rpm and it causes truck to shake and almost go dead. Whenever I put it in park or neutral the idle goes to 800 rpm and stays..it does good out of gear! Ive cleaned the EGR , replaced DPFE , throttle sensor , pcv and replaced IAC. HELP!!!!

    Clean mass air flow sensor first and report back.

    Make sure to check your plugs!! They might be backing out.

    No, but the V6's are known to foul the shat out of some plugs.

    Nope, I think it's ALL Fords honestly. :jester: Carbon build up is a problem in the V6's though.
