It could one of a number of issues, but the most likely ones have to do with routine maintenance if the vehicle has not been serviced in a very long time. A standard tuneup may slove the problem...

Try replacing the ignition module in the distributor. This is a common problem on these engines.

SOURCE: 99 F250 V10 Sputtering

It takes just one of the coil on Plug units to cause sputtering and severe shaking. Fortunately the prices have dropped slightly for the coil units. The bad news is it is still close to 100 bucks from the Ford dealers. I have had to replace 3 of these on my 1999 F250 superduty V-10 since I bought it new. I believe there may be some compatible aftermarket units out there for high performance V-8 engines, but can not confirm compatibility.

Well first off you need to put Motorcraft spark plugs in your vehicle, and it sounds like you have a bad coil..Take it to autozone, or Advanced Discount..depending on your location, an they can scan it for free. An then you will know what direction to go in.. Goodluck..

I cant get any power out of my car when i go up a hill and when i get it up to about 70 it will run good but then sputter but runs good around town

Fuel filters normally cause this kind of problem. Check the fuel filters. If it sputters when you accelerate hard this is the most common sign. If the filters are fine run a fuel system cleaner in the gas and then change your spark plugs.

1991 Toyota land cruiser.. vibration, sputtering??

One of the plug wires may be arching or have a defective spark. It's odd, but I check mine by removing each plug wire one at a time. I'll use stick the end of a screw driver (insulated handle) in the plug wire and check the spark coming in from the coil/coil pack/distributor. Keep in mind, the engine is running and I only do this if there's no shop open or close by. Also the insulated handles are for that unwanted shock. Has he checked for sparks at night with the engine running. Look around and follow the plug wires and around coil/coil pack for any jumping sparks. If any are seen, there's your problem.
