V8's do it too so it is not just the sixes that do it.

Had the rough idle and occasional stall after the 15K service. Ford replace PCU and no problems with that afterwards. Now waiting on a new heater box and just today had indicator cluster replaced due to a short between indicators/dash lights/driving lights.

So far everything has been under warranty but the car has still be in about 20 times.

I had this problem before, took the t down to the dealer and they advised that it was the sensor. they asked wat fuel I used and when I said optimax he just said dont.

Been using Vortex 98 and Mobil and have had no problems since. Just started having slight problems with idle

I had a similar problem with my old EA and I think its common throughout all fords. To fix it I cleaned the throttle body and also cleaned the Idle Speed Control (ISC - controls the amount of air getting into the engine when idle ie. when the throttle body is fully closed) solenoid with a spray of carby cleaner. Idles smooth no and doesnt stall. Not sure what the ISC equivalent is for the BA's but I think its the problem.
