Default 5.4 engine misfire?

Hi everyone i have a 04 supercrew lariat with 74000km and i just got a bunch of warranty done about 1000km ago. "1 sensor-camsh, 12 adjuster asy, 1 coil asy-ign" and its worked mint till today it started jerking and then i floored it and it sounded like popcorn poping under hood...with alot of hesitation. Didn't have time to take to the dealer, but called them and they asked if any lights came on but there isn't.....any suggestions...i think the coils were replaced last time.

How do you like your 2.5" leveling kit.....? Is it level or would 2-3" be better.

well, the 2.5 is really good IMO...but the problem with my truck is (if you look at my pics in my post https://www.f150forum.com/f4/34s-4x2-w-leveling-kit-4728/ there) you can see in one or 2 pics that the rear end of the truck is a little bit lower, but its because i have the bed cover which weighs about 200 lbs...other than that, the truck sits very well near level and it gives it a VERY nice look...and i think 2.5 is the most common leveling kit anyways...

idk if it would be a lemon or not..because lemon would mean you have a re-occuring problem after having it fixed several times...i say you just take it to the dealership and tell them everything thats happening

oh ok thats good then, hopefully they will be able to fix it...i know it sucks not being in your truck, but it sucks even more when you are in it, and the job isnt done right, so try to get them to do everything right, and tell them to do like massive road tests etc (thats what i would do IMO) but at least you have wheels to drive...when i crashed my truck i was out of it for 2 months...i had to roll around in my gfs bettle for a couple of weeks, then switched back n fourth from that to my dads jeep...but all in all, tell them to take their time and do it rite (are they paying for the loaner btw?)

no i know the service dept. and they said today that they think it needs sparkplugs as it not scanning....no code, so ill try that and see what happens. I was going to have to pay for it but pull a few strings and the dealership i bought it from is going to pay. I've only had it a month and it is a good buddy i bought it from.........some buddy ah, sold me a problem ride ya i crashed my last truck in a field. That sucked. It was way more unique than my new one. 98 reg cab, 4.6, 5speed, 4x4. and lots of more done to it.
