    2006 etec 225 stall at start up

    I bought a ranger with a etec 225. It's an 06, every now and then when I unload it off the trailer I start it up, back it off with out touching the throttle, idle to the dock or what ever. Now when I get back from parking the truck. I idle out to take off and when I hit the gas it has a deep tone but no power. No higher on rpms or anything, kill the motor start it again and I hit the hot foot and all the power is there. After I do that I'm fine for the day. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

    Sounds like the fuel is losing it prime. Do you squeeze the primer bulb before this happens?
