Well, I finally got a new truck. a 1993 F150 with a 5.0 V8, automatic, extended cab, a shell, etc. Tracing down some other issues like the passenger side door only opens from the outside, and so forth.

A big issue right now is when the steering wheel is turned to the far right and left when idling on the flat road out front, it makes the engine hesitate and stumble, then when it returns to the normal position, the engine picks up again.

Anyone have any idea what is going on here? Never seen this before with a vehicle!

 

UMM check your power steerring pump it could be goin bad honestly i thought about doing a ps pump conversion out of a van

 

your truck has no power steering?

 

no just getting rid of the whiney stock power steering pump that came with the truck and putting a saginaw pump in they are better ps pumps
