Sounds like maybe fuel pump. Pump and strainer are in the gas tank. They are a ceiled unit. Would recommend replacing if you are having trouble. Check for a service hole before removing the entire tank first. Can save a lot of time.

What did u do? I just bought one today test drive went fine I had a 2 hr ride home she fell on her face and died! I let her sit for a few when I started her back up full revs so I dumped and let her roar need less to say back on her face in 20 minutes and less time in-between attempts she made it home tho

Mine is doing the same thing. Had the fuel pump and filter replaced as well as the catalytic converters
Could the manifold gasket be the problem? Any help.

If there is a fuel filter on the chassis, check and replace that first.

I have a 2005 f150 5.4 3v...Accelerates and goes through the gear just fine as long as you don't press the accerator all the way down. It seems the as long as you keep the pedal about one inch from the floor board its normal but once you pass that inch, it will bog down at any rpm...Any ideas...Already changed the mass air throttle, fuel pump, injectors, fuel filter, Oxigen sensors...Thanks for any input...there is no codes.

Check tps. Also will prevent starting if completely bad

Mine was a easy fix. Replaced IAC ran good then started doing same thing next day. Thinking fuel pump pump relay filters vacume leaks air filters? After thinking the worst realized my battery cables weren't even tight. That's all it was.

On my 2006 Lariat I’m the only owner. At 103,000 miles she wouldn’t want to move, had zero power and made a clicking from engine when I tried to hover her gas…. I replaced all spark plugs and wires, & the Catalytic converters were completely shot, so I replaced both and the mass air flow sensor we replaced but it ran crappy with new one so we put old sensor back in and she runs like brand new!!!

Hesitation/choking when accelerating

It might be that your engine requires an internal cleaning removing the crankcase and washing the whole throttle body. It might even stall and shutt off because of this problems
Masquatch Dad from United States 3 years ago
Was looking at this thread because I had this problem a few years ago-4-5 years. Remove and clean the throttle body. My 2005 F-150 started doing it again last night. It's intermittent at first then more often until you clean the throttle body. Hope this helps!

On my 2005 F150 that I just had the transmission rebuilt on. They found a stuck valve on in valve body which causes the drum to break. The drum is poorly designed and they make a better one to replace it with.
513F150 from United States 3 years ago
Mine does that but after I’ve drove it for a while. It runs fine when It first starts but after a while it will jerk when I let off the gas and if I stop at a red light, when I hit the gas it jerks hard like it’s going to stop! I thought a while back I was having issues with the transmission temperature sensor because of hard cranks after a lon drive and letting it sit! Could it be the same issue? I plan on changing it out and changing the fluid since it has high miles anyway.

Acceleration loss under load

Ford F-150 2005 F150 5.4 3valve 100000 miles
Has power with overdrive off but hesitates and Boggs down when going up hill with overdrive on and acts sluggish when cruising at low speeds with overdrive on. When you step on the gas halfway to the floor or more it Boggs way down before accelerating. I have replaced all 8 coils all 8 spark plugs fuel filter both evap valves and the fuel pump control module and cleaned the mass airflow sensor and dumped fuel system cleaner in the tank.

I went through this problem for about 9 months. Replaced icm, computer, disputer, coils, plugs , wires, tps, maf, egr , fuel pressure regulator,. Last thing replaced o2 sensor fixed the total thing. If I was to start over I would get the air right, o2 sensors and maf. Then check fuel pressure, and go from there. Go to a mechanic that can read the obd1 computer to diaganose it better. Good luck
Diesel Jerry from United States 6 years ago
If you have the 4R70E or W transmission there’s an issue with the design of the drum in the transmission and the valves sticking in the valve body. They make a better designed drum to fix the problem.

Wires might be cooked close to back of engine head or oil in plug o ring failure easy fix if harness might have to unplug trans wires and for slack good luck PS check engine bay fuse23 if blown

My pick up does not accelerate

Ford F-150 1998  140000 miles
It started with jerks while driving; when starting gold y vibrates and then it normalizes. While driving it losed power as if choking a little, but now it got worse. It chokes while accelerating and sounds as if exploding, when I let go it keeps driving; if I accelerate again it does the same but it doesn't stall. If I turn it off for 5 seconds it works for 10 minutes and then it fails again. I alreadi cleaned the injectors, changed spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter, fuel pump, coils and their sensors. I've already had this problem for a year and they can't solve it, yesterday I scanned it and had air sensor error, but changing it didn't fix it.

Truck failure

Ford F-150 2008  128 miles
It was working fine and the next day I used it I felt the truck heavy, it didn't have the normal acceleration, and then I realized it didn't have the power to go uphill, it went sluggishly and when the revolutions go up it started shuddering. With the scanner it showed errors P0755, P1747 and P0743, I was told it might be the gas pump, but the failure continues. It's a 2008 mexican Ford truck, 8 cilinders and 4.6L engine with automatic transmission.

The error code P1747 ir related to the transmission: pressure in the control solenoid, and most likely the other error codes are related. Check the solenoids.

How many miles since last transmission fluid exchange? Shuttering sound like torque converter shutter. Try BG Products transmission conditioner, it will neutralize the fluid. If the shutter goes away then exchange the fluid and use another BG conditioner again.

It could be because of dirty injectors, it might also be the fuel filter that is underneath the driver's seat, check that first to see if it's clogged. If it still fails you should check the fuel pump, it has a filter for the fuel in the tank that goes to the injectors. The stronger the acceleration, the more power it would lose.

Won't turn over not getting fuel

Ford F-150 2012 F-150/3.7/v6 167000 miles
Replaced fuel pump but still get signs. It's a fuel pump. Think it's fuses. Loses power, Dogg's out, acts like transmission out, I have to manually change gears for it to try and go, backfires under hood also during all this. Then after a spell it runs fine. Unless gas is gone. Then it's hard to start have to add are lease half tank bang on it and constantly spray starting fluid with pedale to medal then after three cans starts. Does this Only when a quarter to none of gas in the tank left though. They say catalyst converter are clogged up is why ts doing that.

Bruce from United States a year ago
It sounds like there may be multiple issues with your Ford F-150. Here are a few possibilities:

Fuel pump: If the fuel pump was recently replaced but you're still experiencing problems with your vehicle starting, it's possible that the new fuel pump wasn't installed correctly, or that there's a problem with the wiring or fuel lines that is affecting its performance.
Fuel system: If you're experiencing problems with the fuel system, such as the engine losing power or the vehicle stalling, there could be an issue with the fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, or injectors.
Catalytic converter: If the catalytic converter is clogged, this can cause issues with the engine's performance, including reduced power and backfires.
Electrical: If you're experiencing problems with the electrical system, such as the starter or fuel pump not engaging, there could be a problem with the fuses, battery, alternator, or wiring.

It could be a problem with the fuel pressure, check the fuel filter. The IAC (Idle Air control) might be worth checking too. Let us know how it goes!

Revolutions go up and down

Ford F-150 2008  190581 miles
It starts normally and after a while the revolutions go up and down until it stabilizes again. Like 20 minutes afterwards it starts doing the same until it shuts off. The throttle body was cleaned, the spark plugs and cables were changed, but it does the same until shutting off.

Problems while driving

Ford F-150 2005  250000 miles
The truck has the check engine light on, but when I start it and accelerate it I get a wrench warning light and it starts failing and loses power, and the AC stops working. I had that problem before and using a carburetor cleaning product on the admission fixed it for a long time, but now it happened again and I can't fix it.
