Default Newbee needs help

Bought a 92 f150 a few months back she was running a bit tired so i did the typical tune up everything was fine, then the other day was going down the highway 80 85 mph everything was good i got off the highway, stopped at the light when i accelerated the truck started stutering didnt want to accelerate it just bounced along as i pulled of the road the problem stopped and that was it hadnt happened again till today, but this time it didnt stop, it doesent do it at idle just under load, has anyone experienced something like this, or can anyone point me in the right direction.

I am having the same problem, except mine doesn't seem as serious as your sounds as I wasn't planning on posting about it. Mine happens just as I push the pedal slightly, just out of idle, it starts to hesitate. But any rpm after that its fine. My 'check engine' light has not come on. does this truck even have one? and can I pull codes without the light being on? My truck = 96' f150 5.0 auto

dont remember the numbers, but the guy that pulled the codes said EGR, couldnt tell me if it was the valve or another of the components and the throtle positioning sensor, what im feeling doesent feel like a surge it feels like a realy bad mis fire as if i was runing od 3 cylinders, besides my check engine light comes on and off randomly

I'm sure he meant the egr valve. My throttle position sensor on my 88 is bad and acting similar.

To Surfer : yes your truck does have a check engine light ( should light up with key in run position before starting , if not check bulb ). Your symptoms are exactly the same as mine and its the TPS.

Do everybody a favor & check this link out: http://www.informatics.sussex.ac.uk/...00000000000000
Nothing personal. Well actually I guess it is. Don't get me wrong, I like helping people w/ their truck problems, but please show a little common curtesy and attempt punctuation!

Grammar lessons aside, let's have an English lesson, look up the definition of "Joke" or "Joking"

And try doing what was asked dumbass. "I don't remember the codes" doesn't help us help you one bit. Try a grammar lesson so those trying to help can understand what the f*ck you're saying.
