How to check the alternator on 1999 F-150
The simplest way to see if the charging system is OK, is to turn the truck off. Check the voltage at the battery with a volt meter. It should be around 12-12.5Vdc. Start up the truck, the voltage should be 1-1.5V higher. Alternator is "probably" OK.
If in doubt, remove the alternator and take it to AutoZone, and have it checked.

1999 FORD F 150 TRANSMISSION SHIFT TO DRIVE HAVE TO REV UP ENGINE TO GET IT TOSNAP IN GEAR AFTER THAT IT WORKS FINE EXCEPT WHEN YOU STOP IT IS AME AGAIN
The problem is the transmission is loosing pressure, when the engine is
reved the transmission pump replenishes that pressure and the
transmission re-engages. Here are the most obvious reasons:1) Low tranny fluid.2) Dirty filter slowing flow of fluid in the tranny.3) From there it gets complicated and expensive but basically something in the tranny is started to let go and the fragments are clogging the system and/or filter; in that case you are looking at a potential major overhaul of your tranny.I would check the fluid level first, assuming it's up I would drain the pan and check the filter-pay close attention to whats in the fluid-are there chunkies or anything other than clean fluid? Check and change the filter. Unless it's just low fluid the chances are pretty good it's serious.
