2002 f150 burnout
hey, i have a 2002 f150 4x4 5.4L and i was wondering if anyone can tell me why it cant do a burnout? does it have some sort of traction control, and is there any way of getting rid of it? thanks

I used to have the same problem. They just don't have enough power.

i was suprised when i got my truck new it didnt do it either, comming from my 96 ranger with the 4.0L 2wd which would lite up on accident sometimes.....i guess its good this way since keep more tread on the tire than on the concrete

i can burn up my 33x12's no problem, but my truck has the sterling 10.25 with 3:73 and just a k&n intake and dual exhaust.
ps: phil a supercrew that runs 11's?! niiice man!! good job!! its not a 4x4 tho is it? that would rock tho i bet you could get all 4 tires lit up!!

When I first got my truck it would barely squeak the tires. I added a Airaid Cold Air intake and Programmed it with a Hypertech I picked up. I melted the Goodyear Wranglers at my Brothers house attempting to pull loose a locust tree he cut that hung. I have since replaced the Wranglers with Michelin LTX's They are the stock 265 x 16's and I cannot Turn these as well, but I was able Thursday to leave 32 feet of both tires in the lot at work when I left mad. Sometimes it's all in how you apply the pedal.

I think Gumby's right...it's sll in how you use the pedal....The 5.4L has quite a bit of lowe end torque. I have just turned 100k with my 01 and I have the 3.55LS and I can still ight up the 265's no prob! Don't do it that much, as, tires cost a few bucks nowadays!!

very same problem!!! not that there is a need but there is always a want. especiallly coming from the couple of cobra's i have had. the 18 second 1/4 mile f150 doesnt cut it for speed. haha It does do its part in the line up however!!
what is the stock stall of the converter? and can some one recommend a good rpm and product to look into? also what programmers have given good results? mpg vs power mainly? thanks a ton, im looking to spend some money after this deployment!! haha
