Default saga of the 1995 stuttering f150

i originally posted that my 95 gas f150 5litre would stutter, loose powere. changed gas filter,coil,fuel relay and 02 sensor. did the o2 sensor after i bought the code reader. now i have no faults and it's still doing it. but...... if i switch gas tanks slowly several times it goes away. doesn't matter if i switch back to the original tank, or go to the other. as long a i switch a few times. wierd huh???? any thoughts???dave/sandusky

Which engine? both 300 & 302 are commonly referred to as 5 liters, depending on who your talking to. How many miles on the filter? Regardless of engine, Fuel pressure test is next, as mentioned.

What was the pressure? Engine running? Engine off? Regulator unhooked? Bleed down time?
