i got a miss

**92306gt** · 05-25-2011, 10:23 AM

so one of my foxes has developed a miss but it only occurs when it gets to a certain temp. it drives perfect until you come to a stop and the temp rises above 180 degrees. the check engine light will start flashing and it starts missing bad. it bucks and and runs like crap until you get moving again and get some air to it and it cools down below 180 then its fine again. any ideas???

If its flashing the check engine light, it should be setting a code. I would start there,

I just experienced this in my Cobra (I know different year) but check out for a code on which hole it's on or else pull all the plugs and inspect them for any physical problems etc.
