Help with 4.6 L engine stalling
1997 F-150 4.6L with 80K miles. About 3 months ago pulled over to side of road and shut engine off, was running fine. When I went to start it up the engine seemed to start for only a couple of seconds and then died, ignition still in run position, turned to start position, the engine cranked over well but made no attempt to start was like it was not getting any spark. Turned ignition to off position then back to start and the engine started right away and ran well. No problems until yesterday, Pulled into parking lot and shut engine off, again it was running fine. Came back about 30 min. later and went to start it up. Engine again seemed to start 1-2 seconds then died. Remembering first episode I turned the ignition to the off position and then back to on and start position, engine did start but barely,was chugging and missing badly, pushing on gas pedal had no affect and it stalled out after only a bout 5 seconds. Turned ignition to off position and then to on and start position again and the engine started up fine and I drove home with out any problems, no missing no hesitation. Any ideas what would cause this type of problem?
Just so you know, about 6 months ago I had a check engine light come on computer reported a lean engine code, Dealership did an engine Vac cleaned the throttle body and replaced the MAF sensor which fixed the problem.
Thanks for your help.
