Stall when turning/Check Gauges
Hey guys,
New to this site and lately running into issues with my 2008 Ford F150 4.6. It has been happening more often, but when I come into a turn at lower speed, the truck stalls and the "check gauges" signal comes on. It is pretty scary because I sometimes pull my landscaping trailer and it happens then. Both with and without towing. Any feedback is much appreciated. It has 155,000 miles on it.

What do the gauges say ? Anything abnormal? Any codes ? You low on oil ?

I'm no mechanic so take this as you will. I had a 2005 5.4 that developed the same issue at around the same mileage of 140,000 or so. Replacing the Purge Valve Canister seemed to resolve the issue. I hope this helps.

Same here. I cleaned my TB and it stopped cutting out. I also cleaned the MAF later but I would clean both while your in there anyway.
Make sure you buy the correct stuff, they sell TB cleaner and a seperate MAF cleaner. Just be careful with the MAF, can't touch the wires in there.
