Hey guys,

So I recently was having problems with my 95 f150. The check engine light would randomly come on and cause my Rpms to jump around. Sometimes when I would push in the clutch it would hold it's rpm level instead of going back down. Other times the truck would almost try to stall itself out by burying the Rpms, even when I was driving so it got jumpy. I took it in to my mechanic and the computer was reading off all kinds of codes. He found a bunch of shorts and bad grounds and replaced a map sensor, 430 dollars later I got the truck back and it drove fine for about a week. Today I was out driving and the check engine light came back on and it's doing the same **** as before. I can't keep putting money into this truck as much as I love it. I'm only 19 and can barely afford the gas. Please if anyone could help I'd really appreciate it!

 

Take it back to the mechanic and tell him he didnt fix it, either refund your money are fix the problem you payed him to fix......

 

Find someone who has an obd2 scanner or go buy one, scan for codes, find the code, and check the sensor for the code.

 

Only some of the later 95's were obd2. My 95 is obd1. All of 96's were.

 

Yah before I had my truck worked on the first time I took it to autozone to read codes and they couldn't because it is obd1

 

I 2nd that....i stand behind everything i do for my clients so any problems i will fix...so go back to ur mechanic & let him resolve this issue...i remember how it was to be young & have little money to spare.

 

I didnt have my glasses on, I thought his truck is a 96. Ebay has a digital obd1 reader for about $30.00

 

Not needed. Theres a sticky on how to get codes from these trucks. And its free. Any questions, just ask sean, hes about the best obd1 person ive seen on here. Surprised he hasnt chimed in yet. In due time.....

 

But the digital makes it easy. It can be done with a multimeter.
