The symptoms you described sound more like other common problems that are frequently seen around here. A faulty ECT comes to mind... Steve PS. Premium fuel is a waste of money in this engine... 98 Contour SE Sport 2.5 Duratec ATX The wifey's car 89 Taurus SHO - 246K miles 94 SHO ATX - 190K 1997 F-150 5.4L ATX - The Workhorse 150K.
