Question about Ignition Coil Packs for 5.4L 3v ....
I have a 2004 F150 Super Crew Lariat with the 5.4L 3v, and I know that I have a misfire happening due to a faulty coil. I have been looking around and found some that I am interested in, but was wondering if anyone has tried these particular coil packs or know aNY thing about them.
I am looking at the MPG Series coil packs from Granatelli.
http://granatellimotorsports.com/products/2004_2010_Ford_4_6_5_4L_3V_MPG_Coil_Packs-410-0.html
Their claim is:
Direct OEM replacement, won't void your factory warranty
Includes Coil on plug connectors
MPG PLUS increases miles per gallon up to 15%, increases horsepower and torque, allows easier engine starts, and is custom tailored for your vehicle for easy installation. With today’s outrageous fuel costs, this product will pay for itself in no time.
Patented* design feature improves spark, 0 ohms of resistance, no radio interference.
Any advice is much appreciated.

Don't go crazy trying to find "the perfect coil".
^^ I have had those in my truck for over two years and they work fine. Also... those claims are bullsh!t. Simply changing a coil will not affect your MPG, HP, or torque anymore than OEM will. All a coil does is make a low voltage turn into a high voltage and send it to the spark plug. Don't get wrapped up in that hype.

I am in no means a mechanic. That is why I posted this question. I appreciate the response.
I guess I will just stick with OEM or Motorcraft.
