86 5.0 engine problems
Hello.
Wondering if anyone has ever run across this problem?
The truck starts and runs perfect from cold. It goes into high idle and does everything the way it is supposed to. I can shift in and out of gear, accelerate, ect. and it doesn't miss a beat. Now the issue. Once it is warmed up, it turns into an x-wife. If I shift out of park it stalls. Try to rev the engine it stalls. It runs fine just sitting at idle but thats all it will do. I did a key test on it and got a code telling me the air charge temp sensor was sending a wrong voltage back. I pulled it out and found the sensor bent right over touching the cage. Thought I had found the problem but when I put another one in I got the same thing.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
John C

OK. I'll flash the codes again tomorrow night and see if anything different comes up. This is normally my summer truck but I've got problems with my diesel so I was hoping to put it on the road early and buy some time to work on my other one. Anyway, thanks.

I flashed the codes again and got a 54 as before. I then measured the voltage at the connector and found nothing. I removed the air filter box and found one of the wires had been rubbed clean in half by the air box.
All is back to normal again.
Thanks
