I have to get my truck inspected tomorrow. I hadn't started it in a while, and when I went out today the battery was dead. I jumped it and let it run for about 15 minutes, but when I went to move it it started running like a banshee. It hit about 6K on the tach and the peddle seemed stuck, so I shut it off. It ran on for about 30 seconds, dieseling away like crazy before it finally quit.
What gives? I could smell gas when I got out of the truck, but it was too dark to look under the hood. Anybody know any common problems with F-150s that might cause this to happen? It'd be good to have an idea what to look for in the AM.
BTW it's 1999 with a 6-cylinder engine.
