slight miss

I have an 04 F250 SD w/5.4. When you first start up, it will miss for about the first 5 minutes, after that it will run like a top. Stop somewhere and turn it off, start back up, it misses. Any ideas?

Try getting into your truck, but don't start it for 5 minutes. Then when you do start it, you should by-pass the 5 minute of bad idle/miss time, and it should run fine after that.





What about plugs and Wires?
Fuel filter?
Oil?
Bad gas?
