Hey everyone,
I have a 2006 Endeavor that had an issue a few weeks back. Wouldn't charge and I had to jump it. Would go for about 5 minutes and then die again... as the voltage was weak. Gauges went nuts etc.
Took it to a shop and they said the alternator went out. They replaced the battery and the alternator.
I drove it home fine. The other day I drove to the end of my street.. it died. Would restart no problem and drive until I came to a stop.
I was buying a new truck anyways, was going to trade it in but they were not going to give me anything for it. So I planned to sell it outright.
So after a few weeks I finally got around to looking at the Endeavor and noticed when the A/C Is ON, the car runs pefect. Can drive it and stop and go and stop and go and stop and go... ok you get the point..
Minute the A/C turns off.. car dies..
What the heck? Idle control valve? Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks for any input..
Have about 140K miles on the clock. Timing belt and all that done at 100K..
New plugs and valve cover seals at 120K..
