    Default 1996 F150 with the dreaded surge


    Anyone know the possible cause for the truck to surge when in gear and foot on break. Acts like your pumping the fuel peddle with your foot on the break. any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you all ahead of time.

    See if you can find some videos on you tube for cleaning mass air flow valve and throttle plates. They are real bad about gumming up and sticking.

    Normally no because it’s not sensor related.
