FORD LCF HAS HAD CONTINUAL PROBLEMS WHEN DRIVEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS. VEHICLE STALLS OUT AND CAN ONLY BE RESTARTED AFTER COOL DOWN.

THE DEALER HAS REPLACED INJECTORS AND OTHER FUEL DELIVERY PARTS AND ON ONE SERVICE CALL STATED THAT THE TRUCK NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. PREVIOUS OIL CHANGE WAS AT 3000 MILES. *TR
