| Description of the problem | While traveling from kentucky to alabama in driving rain my entire trip, truck begins to misfire and lose power in alabama for the first time since i purchased it new. After letting up on accelerator, truck engine stopped missing, but under strain and on hills it again began to miss fire and engine light began flashing again. Because of power loss and engine bucking, i found a ford dealership immediately for repairs. They replaced the intercooler and reprogrammed the computer in the truck. The truck did stop misfiring, but seemed to drive a little different. It felt like the engine was turned down and still seemed to miss some during the rest of my wet trip to florida. Truck seems to drive great in the city under dry or wet conditions now. * it appears the issue is only with extended travel in very wet conditions. |
