2006 f150 4.6 misfire / rough idle
The problem originally started happening when I was getting low on gas - very rough idle and hesitation on acceleration. Thinking it might possibly be fuel related, I filled up and after a minute of running it went away. A week later the same thing happened at a low fuel level so again I filled up and it went away.
This time though the check engine light came on so I pulled the codes and it was an EGR code. Forgot to write it down. I cleared the code, thinking it was a fluke, and changed the fuel filter. It ran fine for another few months.
Now the rough idle and the hesitation is back, and the truck is undriveable. I changed the plugs and tested the coil overs and the fuel injectors with a volt meter. The resistances were all within range.
I have 3 pending codes now which are:
p1288
Cylinder Head Temp Sensor Out of Self Test Range
p0208
Injector Circuit Open Cylinder 8
p0505
Idle Air Control System
I'm wondering if the computer is putting the truck into limp mode due to the temp sensor.
Thanks
