i drive a '95 f350 w/ a 460ci., it has over 200k miles and it is beginning to give me problems that the local ford service crew can't fix/figure out...i think they are just lazy...what's going on is that i have trouble starting up the truck, well according to them my fuel pressure is good, battery is good and sparks are brand new, they replaced the coil...worked great for a week, then it went back to not starting...they replaced the pcm, worked great for a month, now back at the original problem PLUS the truck will just quit on me while driving, after pumping the gas while i coast it starts back up and i continue on...one fuel filter has been replaced, one fuel injector has been replaced...it was at ford for a total of 21 days, cost just over $1000, and it's no where better...is there a customer complaint thing i can do???? do you have any suggestions for me?
thanks!!

Definitely a fuel delivery problem. Fuel Pump? Check the voltage. If you have a returnless fuel injection its a little more complicated. I also wouldn't take their word for the fuel pressure reading. Maybe your shraeder valve isn't working right. (Once again if you have returnless, which I doubt). Other than that does it run better when you are giving it gas/ under a load? Maybe you need to check the IAC (Idle Air Control) which is attached to the throttle body. Good Luck!

Welcome to FTE! You may want to click forums at the top left then scroll down to the 460 engine forum. Some of the guys in there should be able to help you. Enjoy your stay.
