Idle air sensor

What is this?

It's quite obvious he's talking about an IAC.

Get whatever codes it might show. 4.6 engine was pretty good. Some and not sure which years went to a plastic intake that was a problem but usually would leak coolant.

Other is the deep well long spark plug wires at the plugs would leak the spark out unseen but would run rough if so.

Some easy things to check are that there are no vacuum leaks and check a couple different ways if needed and that air intake parts are not split or leaking in wrong places.

Clean throttle body then on to IAC - clean first then replace if idle is too low but may run fine otherwise,
