You don't give the code but there is more to this since 04.
The throttle is electronic control.
There is a seperate micro processor and programming that controls the throttle.
The reason is, a built in safety that shuts down the throttle when there is a detected fault to prevent run-away since you have no direct control over the throttle.
At this point you don't know what is wrong until it's checked out at a dealer.

thanks guys
just wanted to say thanks I will be replacing that on monday.
is the IAC an easy replacement or something I should have done at a shop
I don't know the code or how to get the code without having someone hook it up to a laptop. is their a way to get the code without a laptop ?

Hell, just throw parts at it, that is the concieved notion that 99% of dealerships do right???
Your better off taking it in, and having it diaged, that is, unless your comfortable with "online" diagnosis???
Could be a IAC..
Could be a throttle pedal issue...
Could be fuel system related....
But, i'm just a tech, i could be wrong.......

Until you see the code and find what part of the system is causing the problem, you will either be throwing parts at the fault or have luck if it fixes the fault.

As far as diagnostics, the only diagnosis needed would be ... does it run with the foot on the gas, then stall when you let off...yeah...bad IAC.
And yeah it's easy...something like 2 8mm bolts and an electrical connection and you're done.

so far so good
I disconnected the battery and replaced the gas filter, and air filter and so far the light has not came back on, and it has not stalled. I was going to replace the IAC but the parts stores don't have them yet for 2005, dealer only I guess. anyways I will run it and watch and see.
p.s the gas that came out of the old filter was brown and nasty

Pardon me for being a "Ford Tech", but i will have to dissagree with that statement.....
P0505 - Idle Air Control (IAC) System Malfunction
P0506 - Idle Air Control (IAC) System RPM Lower Than Expected
P0507 - Idle Air Control (IAC) System RPM Higher Than Expected
P0511 - Idle Air Control (IAC) Circuit Malfunction
Well, so much for their "not" being any codes to "condem" a IAC...
And as far as "looking" like a idiot..... Well........
