It's nothing major yet but is becoming quite annoying. Truck starts and runs fine most of the time. On occasions either fresh start or between trips as soon as I put the truck in Drive and go it starts a slight hesitation. Most of the time I can give er a little hell and it smooths right out. Not really the solution i'm lookin for.

So far i've done the following...

I put a K&N air filter in it, New Fuel Filter, Ran some Seafoam through a tank of High octane shell gas & had the spark plugs professionally changed. Battery was going weak so I put in a Optima battery.

I Still has same issue. It's random and unpredictable. For instance it did it twice last week on different days and not even once the week before. It's never caused a service light either. I'd like to figure it out before it gets worse.


Little about it, 5.4 L Extended cab, Automatic, 2wd.


Thanks for looking,

Try cleaning the MAF sensor. It probably has some K&N filter oil on it causing it to read off and run a bit lean.

 

What's the best stuff for cleaning a MAF sensor?

 

I use brake parts cleaner. It doesn't leave a residue when it dries.
