2000 Ford Explorer - After jump start, vehicle surges, idiot lights come on, will not restart
I have a 2000 Ford Explorer XLS. It has just uneder 300,000 miles (I love
this Explorer!). Just replaced battery not 3 months ago. My daughter got
home from work, I hopped in to go to little store that's 2 miles up the road.
Come out, truck won't start. (No signs/symptoms of any type prior). I get a
friend to jump start truck and as I'm driving home it starts physically
surging. A goofy way to explain it is if there was a ghost forcibly taking it
from neutral to drive, flooring the gas then not. Never had any issue like this
ever. I've had folks say its anything from a sensor (many different sensors
suggested, to battery terminals to the transmission). Out of everything I
have found, nothing has described issues with the battery and surging
together. Anyone ever experienced this?
