Another Fud F-150 issue

Awile ago I bought a 92' F-150 short bed for #1 daughter to drive so I could get my Eldorado back (yea right). Well anyway since she's more or less shunned the truck, I've been driving it and have to admit it's more fun to drive that the 89' F-150 extended cab and 8' box. One thing that is odd about this truck is the engine will "stumble" or act like it drops a couple cylinders every so often and the 'check engine' light comes on for a few seconds then goe's off. This usually happens on decceleration and on occasion acceleration. Otherwise it runs strong. This has the 4.9L fi (300) straight 6 engine and 5 speed stick shift. It has been completely tuned up with all new parts and all new filters. There was no change in the problem.
Is there a pesky loose wire or connection that is an ongoing issue with these? Or am I to used to the smooth operation of a GM engine?

A 1992 should still be OBD-1, which means you can read the codes with a paperclip. I believe on a ford the diagnostic connector is under the hood, been a few years since one of my kids had one. You short two terminal together to put it in diagnostic mode. On a GM you count flashes on the check engine light, but as I recall on a Ford you have to measure pulses from the diagnostic connector to ground. Any el-cheapo analog voltmeter will work, just watch the needle swing & count pulses. A Haynes or Chilton manual should have instructions & a table of the codes. Sometimes you can find them on the web also.

My '95 F150 with the 300 six cyl would stumble a little occasionally on a steady pull, but would smooth out on acceleration. I replaced the fuel injectors and no problems since. Truck had about 210,000 miles on it at the time. If it has dual tanks, try switching back and forth to see if the problem goes away-that should eliminate fuel pump or venting issues.

My 302 did that. I replaced the MAF sensor (mass air flow) and it worked great ever since. Did you read the check engine code?? Code readers for that truck are cheap. ($30 at walmart). They are just as good as the expensive ones.
