Bone stock? Did you purchase it from a private seller of from a dealer and/or lot? From the symptoms you state it sounds a lot like a bad FRPS. Of course there are other reasons that can cause this behavior, but a bad FRPS is one of the most common.

Gee, thanks for giving us a chance to help the guy out. Why don't you head over to the 4.6 forums and see if you can't run a few of those guys off too!

For the best support go over to ModularFords.com. They have an 03/04 Cobra Tech forum that completely blows the living crap out of SVTPerformance's forum. :rolleyes:
