Red face 2001 F-150 Trouble Starting
Within the past 2 weeks I have been having trouble with my F-150. Its having trouble cranking thoroughly. If I tap the gas before I crank, it has no problems. Also 2 times I was going less than 5 mph & it stalled. What could this be? Took it somewhere & they were no help!

Thanks,
Scarolinasw33ti3

Idle Air Control valve prehaps? Won't throw a code and stalls your truck out at idle and low speeds.

Yep, probably a cranky IAC valve.
