What year model? Has the fuel filter been changed lately?
2007. It sounds like it has a bad coil
You might be right,limping it back from Monroe right now.
I'll bet on the fuel filter. My truck did the same thing once. Hope it's not the fuel pump. They put those in the fuel tank on a Chevy.
Is the check engine light on? Might wanna try Ambrose (hwy 80),ABC auto repair(hwy 33), Kirbow (monroe st.),or Ace automotive(hwy 167).
Check engine light is on.
If check engine light is on, it should have set a diagnostic code. You can go by autozone and let them hook a diagnostic code reader up to your truck (usually no charge) and get the code and that will tell you what may be wrong with it. It may save you some time and money or at least give you a heads up of what is wrong.
Bad coil. I have a 2003 F150 and just had one go bad on me. Same thing happened 2 years ago. Horrible stuttering over 45 or so. Depending on the year/model, the coils are kind of hard to get to, so you might not have a choice but to take it to someone. I went ahead and got all new spark plugs as well because bad plugs can be the cause of the coil going out.
Jordan Mills on choosing Tech:
“It’s a great experience seeing them play. It was a good atmosphere. The fans stood up the whole game and never sat down. They have a great fan base.”
Probably a coil or the throttle position sensor.
Kirbow sold the mech. but still has the tire store next door. Max Hammons, about ten miles up Hwy 33 is pretty good.
