hey guys so the cars been to two different dealers everything talked about here has been replaced. now they want me to get a new ecm because they are back ordered. Are v8 ls the same as the bird? just reprogram it or? where is a good used or rebuilt source? thanks again guys

I reused the metal throttle body gasket could that be a problem?

the hotter it gets outside the faster it goes into limp mode.

ya I love spending money new throttle body didn't do ****... so replace coil 4? it currently has about 3 miles on a new motorcraft coil.. seriously nobody has had it be something else like a egr valve? or clogged cat?

well i'm going to order a throttle body where do you guys get yours from?

I did fix the cowl did the plugs and checked gap 2107 and 2110 I already tried another throttle body same thing happened.

Alright guys thanks for all the help. It took awhile but I just replaced all the coils with new Motorcraft DG529 let the car idle for about 15 minutes and same damn problem went into limp mode.. So what do I try next? Again thank you guys so much for the help.

because its only in traffic or idle when it goes into fail safe mode. I go see my mom about 4 hours away all the time it makes the trip fine. it didn't last 30 min in traffic yesterday I feel like it has something to do with exhaust and because of the smell.

ya when i got there and told them what happened the asst manager acted like he was going to do something to fix the water damage it caused on the new motor at least but apparently not. I cleaned out the water and swapped the coil and the issue is still there (still code p2107, p2110). I'm...

they basically told me to get bent lol

so I just went to pay for that seal so they would order it and i complained about the issue to the assistant service manager and he told me to leave the car with them she they could look at it.. no idea what they are going to say but hey whatever i'll let them. I was just going to write a bad...

man I don't know how to thank you I had no idea it was just water getting in there but i dumped a cup of water on the passenger side windshield and water immediately poured onto the motor and into #4 the dealer would have been like 1200 for another throttle body that was next.. thank you I...
