| Description of the problem | Emissions light displays: 2006 f150 looses power, will not accelerate, stalls while driving in traffic (creating a traffic hazard), pops (backfires) while trying to accelerate. Have to totally stop truck, turn off ignition, wait a few minutes, restart and proceed. Sometimes have to repeat this several times while driving to destination. Had truck hooked to diagnostic computer, mechanic said there "was" a problem, but it cleared itself.... Charged me for computer use. He said to come back in when truck was "misbehaving" again. It does it sporadically, explained this to mechanic. Emissions light comes on and goes out sporadically as well. |
