98 F150 4wd Questions
98 F150 4wd Questions
...and let the brain picking commence...
I see this is where they consolodated everything, nice. Anyhow, picked up a 98 F150, auto trans, and 4wd. Has the 4.6L Tritan V8. My questioning is even after doing a complete tune up(which it needed anyhow), when i step on the gas pedal, it acts like it's going to die, then comes back alive like nothing happened. It happens at idle. When I went to back out of the driveway yesterday morning, the truck almost choked itself. Any thoughts on the matter?
I made a recording of it at idle. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9p...it?usp=sharing
I've always owned 80s trucks with a carb, none of that EFI stuff so I'm new to working on vehicles with it on it. If it's normal, I'll let it be but if not, I need to know what to do to fix it as it has to tow a trailor down to TN in August.
