02' 5.4 engine cutting out problem.
my 02' f-250 is cutting out when i accelerate. it it very similar to when a carbuerated engine is gettin to much gas and it chokes when you puch the throttle. it does it breifly and then clears up. doesnt seem to matter what speed, gear, or rpm either. any ideas? i just turned her over 20,000 miles last night and im pretty sure that this isnt supposed to be part of normal wear. anyhow, thanks fer any advice.

My old '94 started burping at me coming home from work one day. I checked under the hood for anything obvious and found nothing. I disconnected the battery to re-set the computer and she never acted up again. Something simple and cheap tp try. May or may not help. Good luck!
