SheDevil said:My question for all you that have this problem is this: how do you start your car? I mean, when you get in, do you just stick the key in and turn it right away?? Because I used to do that. A couple weeks ago I started waiting before turning it over till that ding-dinging stops. You know, the beeping when you stick the key in?? Wait till that stops (It beeps 4 or 5 times), then turn the key over. Since I've started doing this, I've never had any problems.
Nater said:I've done the same. I took it to Ford and they said they reprogrammed the computer with upgraded software and it should handle the problem. They said the same thing about the ticking that happens occassionally in the passenger cylinder head. Whatever. It didn't work, so I turn the key to "Ignition" put my seatbelt on and then start the car. No problems now. I guess it may have to do with the fuel system needing to be primed.

I don't know if this all makes any sense, or it may not even work for anyone else. All I know is that had the problem you all talk of since the day I bought the car (end of March), and now I don't. Who knows, maybe it even fixed itself.
