My friends freestar is misfiring (you can hear it)
its dropping a misfire cyl 1 code I thought I screenshot'ed it but it was something 301.
any ideas? I could smell gas so I'm thinking failure of spark.
And I have ordered motorcraft wires, motorcraft plugs, and if that doesnt fix it ..next step is the coil.
Any other ideas?
Also it was failing these tests
Edit: no its not COP
its standard 6pack coil. you cant see anything the engine is transverse mounted and the cowl covers over half of it.
codes were reset and battery was disconnected.. it did not help.
initially on cold engine it doesnt misfire.. within 30s-2m it starts.. and is much worse under load than idle.
