ISSUE
Some vehicles built before 3/5/2001 equipped with a 3.0L Duratec engine may exhibit a hesitation on cold start drive away only between the ambient temperatures of 10-32°C (50-90 °F). This may be caused by the calibration of the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
ACTION
Verify condition. If normal diagnostics cannot pinpoint the condition, reprogram the PCM to the latest level calibration. Refer to the following PCM Calibration Information chart.
SERVICE INFORMATION
Use the chart to determine the latest level calibration needed for the vehicle.
