2008 Ford Fusion runs kinda rough with no codes

[@labcoattheater6161]

Thanks brother, this helps. I see its been about 5 years but this stuff is timeless. Hope you're doing well.

[@BigTravGill]

Thanks man and yes I'm doing pretty good here business wise. I think when you are just honest with people and take time to show what you have done...that keeps them coming back.

[@xtmg2010x]

Thanks man, I just literally bought one of these yesterday cash. It shakes a little and I was just doing a little homework to see what are some of the usual issues with this car on YT. You pointed me on the right direction. Good video👌🏽

So did it fixed your rough idle

[@Mike_The_Hog_A_Nator]

Old video but I bought my Grandma's 2009 Ford Escape 2.5ltr. w/ 80k miles for my Wife & it has the same issue, even when it was bought brand-new in 09'. It ran great without the AC on, but with that AC on & in gear at a light it has a rough Idle or very low idle. It runs & drives fine. I had to change the valve cover gasket because all of my plug wells were full of oil, got all that cleaned, replaced the gaskets, (easy) put new Mobile 1 plugs, coils & boots on her & no change. Then I pulled the Throttle Body (fairly clean) went ahead & cleaned that & the Mass Airflow Sensor, did the whole reset & relearn procedure & now it runs really damn smooth without that AC on but I was later told by a Ford Mechanic & the 2.5ltr are such small Engines, that AC basically just bogs em down & you'll get that little rough idle feel with it in gear & at a red light or something.

I'm facing this same exact issue. I already replaced my valve cover gasket when I did plugs. I cleaned the throttle body and it smoothed out a bit, but now I'm going to run some intake valve cleaner and see if it's just carbon build up. If you ended up doing anything else, could you let us know?

[@loganleroux5383]

Awesome video bud just bought one of these cars and it runs rough hopefully this is the issue because it's an easy fix

[@LiilTyweezy]

Did it ever fix it

[@magnumcircuit]

I had the same problem with my 2010 fusion i changed the vavle cover but i still have issues with it idling rough but not throwing any codes and i changed the motor mounts and all thinking that would help but it hasnt

[@moohmoohj]

Did u find the problem ?

[@reggiemiller6149]

Thankyou sir

[@BigTravGill]

Hope this helped you man

[@3030Deltron]

Same problem here

[@warcannibalmullens1388]

My girlfriends 08 Escape is doing pretty much the same thing, no codes but I'm not finding any oil. Still searching for the problem. Any advise?

[@tylerlee2931]

Im having the issue where mine is running a bit rough on cold start just started yesterday morning doing the same thing this morning soon as it warms up its fine ... and its not an agressive miss i have an aftermarket exhaust so you can really hear it no codes at all ... could it be this ? want to get it fixed before problem occurs elsewhere

[@capt.josephsepulveda8968]

I have already changed out the gaskets and cleaned out the throttle body will it take time to idle smooth ?

[@nicholasearley2639]

Capt. Joseph Sepulveda try intake manifold gasket

[@ericjohnson4164]

Same issue here. I had a ton of oil in the middle wells. I changed the gasket and spark plugs. I still have a rough idle that is pulsating 12 sec high idle then 7 sec low idle (approximately). When it has a high idle there is less vibration overall. Only notice this when the car is stopped. And there is always more vibration with the car in drive or reverse vs parked or neutral. But pulse is still there. Not sure what to check next...

[@BigTravGill]

did you change the coils...?

[@ericjohnson4164]

@@BigTravGill thanks for your reply. No, haven't changes the coils. I just cleaned the throttle body yesterday and tried to reset the fuel trim and shift points - idled for 20 min and then drove for 10 miles... Gonna see what that does before I start spending more money. But, I'll look into that next for sure.

[@ScubaSteve397]

Eric Johnson mines doing the same thing as yours please lmk what you find out. I took it to a shop and they said it was the compressor...

[@TheHowToCorrectly]

Eric Johnson changing the coils will most likely do it

[@stevejobs158]

Just be careful because that valve cover becomes real brittle over time mines held together by super glue in more than one location nobody here in town has replacement careful boys

[@suntstrain8289]

replace the motor mounts, problem solved

[@BigTravGill]

wrong... the video explains it

[@psychojoe69]

Did you change your coil packs because of the oil or did you clean them

[@BigTravGill]

the customer had been driving on them so long soaked in oil it damaged them...so I changed all 4

[@LiilTyweezy]

@@BigTravGill so you saying when these coul packs go bad it cause the rough idle

[@BigTravGill]

@@LiilTyweezy these had been shorted out because the non stop oil so I replaced them
