New Problem – Won’t stay running
1992 F-150 4.9 Liter 5 Speed manual with air conditioning
Took the truck into the shop to have it repaired for poor idling after it warmed up. They replaced a water temp sensor and an air sensor. Truck ran better but after 15 miles it still had idle problems but better than before.
Over the weekend I replaced the Throttle Position Sensor and took a test drive. Same problem ran fine till it got warmed up.
I’m taking it back to the shop today, so I removed the negative ground cable to clear all the codes. After reattaching the ground cable, the truck would crank but only run for a few seconds. Eventually got it to stay running but when I put it in gear and let out fully of the clutch, the truck would stall out. However I found that if I rode the clutch the truck ran fine. I only had to ride it ever so slightly, like just a little below fully extended. But as soon as I took my foot off, it stalled out.
It would idle in neutral without my foot on the clutch.
Any thoughts what me be happening here?
Thanks
