Greetings to all the Great FORD Lovers;
I have a 1988 Ford E350 Dually with a 460MPI/C6 that hauls my fifth wheel trailer.
My problem is that when the engine heats up the response from the throttle from a stop and trying to get up some speed from any speed when you mash the peddle it falls on its face until it catches up with itself. When cold runs great.
I put on a flow master mufller with 3" exhaust after the cat.
It has a K & N filter, had code 32 in it, replaced egr and evp, no change. Took it to the ford dealer all test were "inconclusive"
another words they found nothing wrong with it.
Any help from you would be awesome
Thank You Very much

If the engine runs great when cold but has no power when hot, I would replace the ECT sensor. If the sensor is reporting the engine is always cold the computer will supply the correct fuel when cold but be pig rich when hot.
Just my two cents...

"Big bronco" has got a point, if you dont have meter to check it they are cheep just replace it. But thats a big spread on fuel pressure test results, do you see black smoke out the pipe or a rotten egg smell when its acting up. Any other new habits when it 's not running properly? ( very important when trying to diagnose) Domenico...

Bronco,
I put an etc sensor will let you know how it runs, need to give good test.
Domenico,
No black smoke or rotten egg smell,
thanks for asking

I do have another ? Why is there a restriction at the intake, I am talking about the funky looking twin horn piece, what does it do and why is it there.

I think this may be the intake air baffle. It is supposed to reduce the air sucking noise.
