I drive a '92 F150. The problem is, when i press the gas from a dead stop, the RPMs shoot down and the engine cuts off. (happens once a day).

Asked by Christopher Apr 13, 2009 at 06:40 PM about the 1992 Ford F-150

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

After this happens, when i try to start it again, it wont for about 5 minutes, unless i press the gas petal while trying to start it again. the it takes another few minutes for it to run again smoothly. After this whole process is finished, the engine wont do it again while i'm on the same trip. i would much appreciate a diagnosis. thanks
