My truck has been at the Ford dealer for a rough idle for 3 weeks. They have replace #3,4,6, and 7 injectors and it still is rough but not all of the time. It will idle smooth and then get rough and then smooth again. The dealer has been working with Ford and they have changed everything that they know to do. Now Ford wants them to pull the motor and have one of their inspectors come out and inspect the bottom end. The engineers thinks it may be bent rod (I doubt it very seriously) or the cam position pick up. I have studs in the engine so I don't want Ford to tear it down and then decide to void the warranty. It has had this problem for around 40,000 to 50,000 miles so I am not real concerned about it. Instead of going through all of the this trouble and a risk of voiding the warranty, I think I will tell them to leave it alone. The warranty is almost up anyway and I don't want to spend 5,000 or so if they void it on a motor I don't want anyway. I can put that to another engine. Has anybody else had any trouble with the rough idle after everything has been replaced?
