Please Help!
I have a 1996 F150 4x4 5.8L automatic and I'm having troubles with it. It has 173k miles. The truck runs very well for the most part however after a recent tune up ( to correct a misfiring issue ) the misfire has continued and it is now stalling. It will refire immediately and will idle for a while with a slight miss, but blip the throttle or put a load on it at idle such as crank the steering wheel and she dies. While driving it is fine but at a stop the problems come back. I have pulled the codes and come up with codes P1351, P1359, and P0401. Autozone suggested that it was the Ignition module and so I replaced it although it had been replaced already at some point. ( it had Napa written on it ) of course this made no difference. So far a new parts list includes a new EGR, Ignition Module, Plugs, Wires, Cap ,and Rotor. I have looked over the system for vaccume leaks or broken wires/plugs and came up with nothing there I even starred at it for an extended period of time no luck. Thanks for your time. Rob
