and if it was the throttle body or cable, wouldnt it have the same problems when im parked/neutral and revving? No issues there.

you're not supposed to spray the tb with anything. it has an anti-sludge coating from the factory, according to the hayne's manual.

if the fuel filter is only letting a set amount through the line, why wouldn't it manifest itself more obviously at higher rpms? he needs more fuel at high rpms than at idle, no? maybe he is having symptoms at a lower rpm, they just aren't obvious because the motor doesn't need a buttload of fuel.

well, symptoms at lower speeds and rpms are startin to show. An hour ago i was doin 45, and gave it some gas to pass a guy, when i got to about 3300 rpms, it jerked once or twice. Nothing major like earlier today.

Ok, so the car was goin fine all this morning, my friend checked it out and it drove fine. We changed the fuel filter anyway. After a couple hours, it started up agian. My friend drove it and said it sounded like the governor was faulty. Any ideas? This sound about right? I have a year warranty on the new tranny, so im hopin its covered.

can you get up to speed on light throttle? if you can get past a certain speed its not the govornor. do you have any cel's? i say you take it to the ford dealership and say this started happening after u replaced the tranny. i think itsa fuel or sparkproblem. check all your vacum lines too make sure none are off or disconected.

GStam66

no cel light, and we checked out the vaccuum lines. Fuel seems fine, tps was fine also. It was workin fine again for a bit, then it messed up again. its real inconsistent.

possibly the transmission govenor...that controls the pressure when its suppose to shift ....(pretty much controls pressures)

could be the pump in the tranny causing the torque converter to slip at certain times too... these damn autos are toooo confusing. lol. which would be basically the pressure inside the tranny making it shift sooner and the torque converter could be slipping making it jumpy..
