Starting issues with my 2003 F150 FX4
<HR style="COLOR: #666666" SIZE=1>I have been having speratic staring problems with my truck. It happens more on days that the tempreture is around freezing and it's more of a warm engine start issue. It will crank but wont turn over until I push on the gas and turn the key. I have had it in to the shop about 10 times but they can never get it to do it for them.Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Hi and welcome to the forum

Usually if you have to hold the throttle open a bit to start it the problem is a bad IAC (Idle Air Control). If you do a search in the forum here you'll find more info on that.
