OK guys ... Help?
Started having this problem last weekend. Have
checked the fuel pressure (40-50), plugs, boost,
etc. on my '02 with 11,000 miles. It's not setting
any codes that would indicate the coil packs are
failing, but I can't think of anything else that would
cause this. Chip is seated well, checked the vacuum
lines, etc. Ran two cans of HEAT through and two
tanks of gas, because the Ford Dealer thought that
was the problem. It's back there now for the third
trip in.
If I punch it from a roll, it breaks up immediately, and
if I am stopped and launch, it sometimes breaks up
immediately and sometimes not. (I hate intermittant
problems!) Then it breaks up again at about 5200 rpm
just before all shifts.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Cliff

23k miles and I am on my 4th fuel filter. If that doesn't do it try and duplicate the problem with the chip out.

Well, replaced the Fuel Filter ($49.00) and it's still there
so I guess it's strip it back to stock so I can have them diagnose
the problem. He ran the sensor stuff on it and even through the
breakup didn't see anything dropping spark or other stuff ... so ,..
It's gonna be a LONG night!!!

Well, the latest is that the pulley will NOT come off ...
Interchangeable? I seriously doubt if anyone can ever
get these things off after they have been on for a while.
Next step is a Sawzall ... Cause a 6 point socket and a
three foot cheater and a 16 inch pipe wrench didn't touch it !!!
The Pulley now rotates on th eshaft rather freely, but the
bolt still isn't loose ...
I can see how Doug's got messed up at the dealer ... dayum
this is tough stuff ...
Anyone else have trouble getting the JDM pulley off ?

They didn't see anything wrong with mine either. When I went to pick up the truck from the dealer, I floored it as soon as I got to the road. It did it again (mis-fired), so I turned around and took the tech with me for a ride. Sure enough he knew exactly what it was (coilpacks), took it right back into the shop and gave it back to me a 1/2 hour later with the problem fixed. That's what I call good service!
