drivibility problems p0340
05 gt with code p0340. sensor changed 3 times, bucks and runs rough in colder tempratures(for florida)... saw a post that said alternator going bad screwing up the sensor but I checked the alternator at work and its good... had similar problem on my 99 gt and it turned out to be coil over plugs. anybody have any insight as to what this may be? if you need more info, let me know

I suggest having the charging system and battery checked using something other than a handheld device. Those handhelds are notoriously bad, and often they are not sent out to be checked on a routine basis.
A service advisor at my Ford dealer checked my battery using a handheld device. It showed good charge, battery okay. After I turned my headlights on for two minutes, with the engine off, it showed needs charge, battery okay. When the service advisor sent the car back for the techs to check it on their big tester, it came back as battery unable to take charge and unable to hold charge. They replaced the battery under warranty.
I spoke to the service manager. He got back to me, and said he had sent all of the handheld devices out to be checked. Two of them were faulty.

Yeah get in there and clean those two items. If that doesnt cure it, just get a PA alternator and that will fix it. Our year cars are famous for crappy stock alternators.
