I just bought the truck used from Battlefield Ford about a month ago. It is an automatic w/ the V10. In the mornings, it will sometimes stall while warming up. Also, while driving, it will lose power, truck will still be on, but when I give it gas, it just won't go, then it will stall. Also, sometimes when I come to a stop, i.e. traffic light, it will cut out, and it seems like it doesn't want to start back up. The dealer, who, gave me the run around about fixing it since I just bought it, said it threw a loss of power code and numerous tranny codes. Any ideas from anyone would be great. Just to give me an idea of what I am up against here!

Take it to an autozone and they will read the codes for you. Then post the results and we can narrow it down from there.

I had a 97 Chevy Tahoe doing the same thing. They found out it was the fuel tank sock inside the tank. It needed to b replaced as it was full of filtered contaminents. After my repair, it never did it again. Good Luck

I did that already. They pulled a "Loss of Power" code. I then took it to the dealer, who pulled numerous tranny codes. Then, they cleared them, and now refuses to fix it, even though i bought the truck from them less than a month ago. Used at that, but the 1st time I took it to them, was 4 days after buying the truck.
