Stalling, no accelerator

Ok, on my way home, i go it up to 70 but it seems as soon as i get to a steadt speed it wants to start acting up like its missing, and in town if i stop at a light or let off the pedal, and get back on it, nothing.... than the "service engine soon" light popped on. i have to keep hittin the pedal than away we go. just seem like its not running smoothy at hight speeds. any suggestions or where to start? BESIDES the Ford place. also i tried playing with different setting on the tuner (edge) but it just seems worst or the same on higher setting.

there is a class action law suit about this issue, I don't have the info with me but if you look it up, you can sign up for it. Basically they will pay for any costs you might get from the shop.

It's a moral issue.

If you want to help make some lawyers rich, feel free to sign up for the CAL.

Hopefully, some peoples' conscience won't allow them to participate in the crime of "ambulance chasing".

oK. I did a walk thru on my truck yesterday jut checking all connections. drained the fUEL BOWL and checked filter. But what i did notice was i had some diesel around my fuel to tank connections. seems the clamps had come loose. wiped it off re-installed clamps. came in to work this moring and not one stall or hick-up. Could a leaky fuel line like that cause problems????? sucking air maybe????
