Since I moved away from Chevron territory, I'll add some Techron to my gas maybe once a year. That's about all I trust, but if my ride started falling apart, it's tempting to try a $10 bottle of something instead of taking it to the mechanic. I'm more worried that some gunk will get stirred up and cause worse problems.
Its unbelievable that soooo many people are having the same "sudden stalling" problems with their Expeditions as I've experienced, and yet Ford hasn't issued a recall.
That said, after checking or changing a dozen parts from fuses, relays, connectors, pumps, etc... it turned out to be my "very clean and absolutely normal appearing" throttle body.
So for those who've tried everything else to no avail, and especially for those who've gleaned a temporary reprieve by cleaning it out in the past... simply change it out.
All the best!
