We have a '99 F450 and when it gets hot it will nt crank. Replaced the batteries and it will crank and run good ,drive it a little and kill it and it will barely turn over and let it sit awhile and cool off and it will start. Couls this be the starter? Thanks:dunno

I don't know, mine is doing the exact thing thing, it is NOT the starter, my thread is over at F Series and Super Duty forums under Lube,oil,etc. "Tell me I did not cause this", about 30 post all together and NO one can figure out my problems. Trisha.

battery cables or junk starter.normally if it will crank over fine when cold,and not want to crank hot the starter is toast.but bad battery cables,bad batteries and loose or dirty connections can cause it as well.my 95 wont crank when cold without 2 vehicles jumping it.but itll crank fine when hot.i know my starter is junk,my battery cables are all brand new with good clean/tight connections.both batteries are brand new as well.
