Hey guys I have a 98 f150 with the 4.6. I have changed the fuel filter and removed the cats and still I have this same problem. Seems when I press the petal to the floor it's bogging down like it's not getting gas to the engine and going up hills is becoming a huge problem without the trick wanting to shut down. Anyone know what may be my problem?

It was but it read o2 sensor I cleared it and it hasn't come back on yet. Motor idles fine untill about 3/4 throttle the misses almost and starts back only to mid again

Prolly been a while, just got it from my brother in law who got it at an auction. The plug wires are really long and one has a visible burn mark on it and I plan on replacingthem soon but I just don't see that killin the motor like it does under full throttle or hills. It's got a new knn air filter that's been washed other than that it's stock with some weak glass pack or something. Doubt any of that matter but I just want everything aftermarket known just in case

Anyone got any ideas? I'm thinkin about changing the fuel injectors cause it seems as though it's starving for fuel.

dont change them on a whim- test them first. but it does sound like they could be the culprit. A bottle of techron could clear up the issue if its just a clogged jet
