[QUOTE=Neal]HI!... YA o.k. Your starter will luv that.

QUOTE]

Your starter wont engage because you are in gear. The only positions that the vehicle will start is Park and Neutral. It will not start or engage or anything. If you want to test it just turn your key to the on position, shift down to drive, then try to start it. If it wont start then your golden.

Roush

Talk about mad!! I bought a Roush F-150 last Saturday and didn't want to abuse it so I never "opened it up"on my test drive. Imagine my surprise when,after a few hundred miles, i opened it up with my two grown sons in the truck (I'm a 58 year old fart) and it SHUT DOWN AT 95!!! I called a local chip shop and they are afraid to touch it because it's a Roush and then called Roush and had them tell me basically "tuff ****" I'm a very pissed off old fart right now. Any suggestions??

HI!... Call MIKE TROYER at TROYER PERFORMANCE. Mike goes as "SUPERCHIPS DISTRIBUTOR" in the COMPUTER CHIPS section on this board. He can get rid of your top speed limiter and alot more H.P/TQ from your ROUSH F-150. The ROUSH tunes suck.

My worn out old F-150 will go faster than that! Man, I know how you feel! I'd be pissed too! Get some good tuning, and then it'll GO!

HI!... When my F-150 was stock, the TOP SPEED LIMITER kicked in at 106MPH. Now it basically goes until wind resistance is too much. Usually around 150MPH
