Sounds like some bad fuel or maybe dirty fuel filters?

[strokin1011]

new oil fuel filters and good fuel still does it

[f250ghost]

Have you checked all your filters? Air filters, fuel filter, water seperator, etc? If it's not that maybe it's an injector? Im sure someone here knows...heres a bump...

I know it will cost ya... I would have a trusted mechanic plug his scanner into it... See what codes have been thrown... It will keep ya from getting stranded somewhere in the near future. Might be a sensor. Hopefully it's not a problem with an injector.

Something else came to mind: Your wire harness that is under the valve covers. your connector could be bad... causing a short to the injectors.... the scan will show it... have both sides changed if thats the prob.... my 01 did the same thing... 6months ago... had both harnesses changed... problem solved.

Its either a valve cover harness thats not connected completely, or possibly your ICP sensor, or IPR, all pretty easy fixes.

I can't imagine any problem bad enough to justify selling a psd to buy a dodge, but i'm a diehard.
