Q: Complete Random Intermittent Stalling
I have a 2004 F-150 with a 5.4 engine. Ever since I got it, I was having intermittent stalling issues. When it first started happening It would stall every 1-2 minutes. I took it to my mechanic and he cleaned my fuel injectors. That helped and had no stalling for a few months. Now about a month ago I stalled again but It is able to start right back up. Then I had no more issues until yesterday when it stalled again, and started right back up. There are no check engine lights and I can tell you that I am pretty sure everything is stock from the factory.
My car has 141000 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
