It does it because it knows you're not smart enough to include any pertinent information....
When you step on the throttle, the vacuum at the diaphragm changes..... this cause the breaker plate to move. If the points are improperly gapped, this motion can change the dwell enough to change the timing drastically.....
My truck is a 1992 f 150 4.9 l it has eltronic spark
I would scan for codes.... if there are none, I might check the TPS as a place to start.
The truck is in a good state of tune, right?
