| Note: i wish i had found this site years ago. i could not get past fords brick wall to speak to an engineer! 1. 1997 aerostar - accelerator pedal was pressed down quickly to pass (2 lane highway). 2. now in the left lane, not far ahead of passed the car - i experrienced a complete loss of power - hard right over to soft shoulder - avoided an oncoming head on collision - l just missed the car being passed by inches and stopped. the crimped end of cable to the carburator had released from the accelerator pedal. 3. i clamped the cable back onto the pedal with vice grips. (drove to dealer). ford replaced the cable. that problem has not happened again. (i do not press down hard either!) | |||
