06' F150 Feels like Trans. - It's Not...???
My F150 and I need some Help.
I originally thought it was the Transmission, had no power when under a load.
1st- Brought it to the Trans. shop and they said "It's not your Transmission, It's fine!"
2nd- They had a another mechanic look at it, Scratched his head and said "I don't know"
3rd- Brought it to a specialty Mech. Shop and they replaced Spark Plugs and didn't fix the problem? Diagnostics said it was running rich. So they sent it to a Ford Dealer..!
4th- Ford Dealer decided to pull the Cats and check. Not Plugged. These had been previously replaced by the 3rd shop 45K ago along with all 4 sensors, Cats and Plugs - Costed $3K..! Next they replaced the Fuel Pump! Not fixed? Next they replaced the ECM! Not fixed? And next cut a new ignition key? Not fixed? They threw all these parts at it and still not fixed? and they tried to stick me with a bill for a truck and parts that didn't fix the problem, oh and Ford Service Dept. added a few extra hours on for labor! They tried to scam me! The 3rd shop fought for me because it was only agreed to install a new fuel pump and a $350 limit. I got all these parts for free and it's not fixed. REPLACED: PLUGS, FUEL PUMP, ECM, KEY, CATS & SENSORS! HELP - What is wrong with my Truck..?

I'll have to find out what codes.. The only thing they told me is it was running rich and too much fuel was passing through.
and are the coils bad? Perhaps? I just assumed that when it went to the Ford Service Dept. they would have checked that?
