Ford F 250 superduty V 10 triton airconditioning auto.
I m at 120000 miles had the spark plugs changed at 110000 miles mech said the wires were fine. Cal worthington in Alaska, anchorage. My truck starts up fine sounds good for a minute then starts the low up and down idle alomost dieing thing. Tach says 800 or so. On the highway if I give it a little gas at 55 mph it shutters. What do I need done? Thanks for your time.

Thanks. Plugs were changed 10000 miles ago. As far as checking the cop connection, am I just making sure that they are connected? Which they are. Or is there more to it?

They have a tendency to corrode. I have a V-10 in my RV and I found two bad COP's. Ford tells me that the don't like heat.

I also had a minor low-speed misfire and pinging. It was th EGR valve. Let me know
