I know 2400 stall is common on lightnings too. Wouldn't exceed that number tho. dont go pass 2000 if you do alot of towing too,
Lol I typed too fast and pressed send before putting "swap" at the end of that thought

Thanks guys. Lower the better than on the stock range

Nope, pic sucks but it's a p0171 and p0174. Both banks too lean.

It would have to be dangerously lean to be skipping like that. Is possible, but not probable. I still think it's a coil getting weak.

Lmao. Jbrew, nothing goes over your head. If something even tried to go over your head your superior reflexes would reach up and catch it!

Another member who's neglecting his freakishly awesome supercharged f150 in favor of an old man's caddy. So yes, & no. :-)

Huh, apparently...? Well, only thing that comes to mind is, - I guess you sort of know me. That's different.

Curious, I wonder how many others have that kind of awareness ?

Right and I knew that, but you new THAT.

The Truck should be in the garage vs the cadi IMO. I can't imagine gutting out my garage to make room for some car.

This 150 generation should be treasured.
