Default 2013 diagnostic help

2013 3.7l V6.

While driving the engine will occasionally bogs down like it’s starving for fuel. It only died once and was impossible to start until it has set for 20/30 minutes. Cranked up and I drove it home.

Always starts fine, runs smooth for months without issues. When it does act up, if it doesn’t die, it will sputter and lurch for a bit then run like normal the rest of the day. Throttle body was cleaned.

I checked Fuse 27, it looks like it is perfect, no discoloration. No external fuel filter on this model F150, so it wasn’t changed.

I ran Forscan and the fuel pressure is 33 while running, higher before the engine starts. I can’t load the fuel rail options so I am guessing the 3.7l doesn’t have those sensors.

Any idea what is wrong with my vehicle? Thank you.

Welcome, regarding fuse 27 its not the fuse that is the issue, its the fuse holder.

Thank you. With no discoloration, I am skeptical it could be causing this issue but it's a pretty cheap fix, I ordered a kit.
Since I'm throwing some money at it, I'll get an evap solenoid as well.

If anyone has a thought, what else goes wrong with the 3.7l?
