problem #2

May 182015

F-150 XLT 4.9L V8

  • Automatic transmission
  • 856,000 miles

It's 31 years old. What do you expect? I ended up replacing the Carb, with a 4 barrel, it still runs pretty rough. It will occasionally stall. I do constantly have to adjust the carb, otherwise I get black smoke, but that's more of a Holley issue, not a Ford issue...
