Quitting on me.
I have a '88 F150 with a 300 EFI. On several occassions after making a hard left turn it will surge and then it seems to be running out of gas. It will stall and won't start.
Now heres the kicker!!!! If I pour a small bit of gas down the intake it will start and run rough for a couple of minutes, smooth out and then will be fine for a couple of months. This is driving me CRAZY!!!!! No-one seems to have a fix.
I've changed the cap, button, wires,plugs, fuel filter and air filter. No good!!!
If it was the fuel pump why is it ok for a couple of months?
I can't trust it not to happen in the middle of an intersection!!!
If I can't get a fix I may have to get rid of it.
HELP!!!!!!
