[QUOTE="SDarkRage, post: 1665963, member: 3492"] I know on the Ford Explorers, the MAF rarely ever goes bad. Its always the IAC that craps out and the little valve doesn't move back and forth anymore due to carbon build up. Also, if the GS is anything retarded like the motor in the Explorer, Ford in their infinite wisdom put 2 different coolant sensors on the motor located in the same spot. One gives you the temp indication on your dash, the other one tells the computer what temp the motor is so it will lean or richen the fuel flow. If that second one goes bad, it leans it out so much the truck won't run unless you give it gas continuously. Also, the intake gasket could be leaking, causing motor to lean out too much. [/QUOTE]
