TRYING TO FIND A DIAGRAM ON OXYGEN SENSORS UNDER THE ENGINE.

He may not have fixed the idle sencer if it s having you two foot it

I would start with cleaning the throttle bore and plate. Then clean the Idle Air Control valve, IAC, as this is the device that controls idle speed. Use a can of spray carb cleaner and an old toothbrush. Trouble with the IAC would make sense if you can keep the engine going by holding down the gas pedal a bit.
Use the carb cleaner to check for vacuum leaks at hose connections and elbows. run engine and spray short bursts at hoses and listen for idle speed changes.
And lastly if problem is still there check MAP sensor.

you may have a bad idle control sensor,or the idle control sensor may only beginning to go bad.have you maybe bought some bad fuel?you may need to add some lucas fuel injector cleaner to your fuel to clean dirty fuel injectors. clear rubbing alcohol added to any suspected bad fuel will dry the water up in your gas tank also.just add CLEAR rubbing alcohol into your gas tank.if the idle control sensor is bad,the truck will try to die when stopping at red light,or when braking suddenly.you will be constantly restarting it because of dying issues.you will have to be the judge in this intance,bad fuel recently? or bad idle control sensor? have given you 2 solutions to diagnose. hope this helps and thank you for choosing fixya.com

is your check engine light on? i just had the same problem and it was my oxygen sensor.

try to clean the throttle body with cleanner. I had this problem with a gm before. Just make sure that there is not a sticker around the throttle body telling you not to clean. Some fords are like this. I fyou clean the ont that tell you not to clean it will start to make a noise

idle sensor or oxygen sensor.

Look on the front of your transmission from the front of the car on the drivers side there is a module there. It sticks out of the front of the trans and should be white with a blue clip. Unplug that sensor and see if the car idles as you are driving it . This sensor is called a idle sensor, car idles until its stopped like at a light or something. Replace this sensor if unplugging it to see if this helps the car run works.

Since this is an intermittent problem, first try to determine if the problem arises due to one of these many intermittent problems:

* Vehicle vibration
* Heat sensitive
* Freezing
* Water intrusion
* Electrical load
* Cold or hot start up

If you can't isolate the cause of the intermittent problem, you can try adjusting the Idle Speed/Ignition Timing/Idle Mixture Ratio:

Idle Speed/Ignition Timing/Idle Mixture Ratio Adjustment

PREPARATION
1) Make sure that the following parts are in good order.

* Battery
* Ignition system
* Engine oil and coolant levels
* Fuses
* ECM harness connector
* Vacuum hoses
* Air intake system
* (Oil filler cap, oil level gauge, etc.)
* Fuel pressure
* Engine compression
* EGR valve operation (If so equipped)
* Throttle valve
* Evaporative emission system

2) On air conditioner equipped models, checks should be carried out while the air conditioner is OFF.
3) On automatic transmission equipped models, when checking idle rpm, ignition timing and mixture ratio,
checks should be carried out while shift lever is in “N” position.
4) When measuring “CO” percentage, insert probe more than 40 cm (15.7 in) into tail pipe.
5) Turn off headlamps, heater blower, rear defogger.
6) Keep front wheels pointed straight ahead.
7) Make the check after the cooling fan has stopped.

I replaced the Cam Shaft Sensor. I also cleaned the Throttle Body with carb cleaner. I had my wife hold down the accelerator, while running I sprayed down the throttle plate and the entire area around it. Now my TB finally idles smoothly, and it hasn't died yet!! Check engine light is gone and I passed the emissions test!! Yea!!!
