Default i tried fixes and still have problem, what next?

i have a 13 f150 ecoboost 3.5l with 88k miles and recently developed the loss of power, shudder condition about 2 weeks ago. changed new sp534 plugs gapped at 30, drill weep hole in intercooler which let out some fluids, installed catch can on passenger side which has collected a few drops of oil, cleaned the 3 sensors with the map being the dirtiest but not bad and cleared the pcm. i am now at a loss of what to do next as the problem happens shortly after startup from sitting overnight. i have no codes or engine lights on. what do i do next?

Default adding to my problem

i am driving home now on a wet rainy day and so far no power problems then i get the wrench light on my dash and it goes away in a second then my dash loses all the info no mileage fuel info, speedometer stops working but tach does and the airbag light comes on so now i really dont know what kind of issue i have. when i got home and turned off. then turned back on it is back to normal. using forscan i get p0720 oss sensor cuircuit and p0722 oss sensor no signal. can this all be related or do i have a new issue now? someone please help.

Default

My truck suddenly shudders and has no power as I was driving it this morning a block away from my house. I get error code P0720 after a scan. One of one of my brother’s friends drops by. He said to remove the cables from the truck’s battery for an hour and place them back after. It might be a false positive. Well, guess what, it worked. I drove the truck for about 10 miles and everything seems fine now.

Default know my problem?

i found out recent problem was related to the speed sensor which has its own issues on the earlier f150s. dont know if it is related to my earlier power loss problems but i cleared out my settings in the pcm using forscan and everything is running ok for now. i will wait and see. up until this point i was a happy ford owner. now not so sure. good thing is i am learning alot about this truck and how to fix problems.

Default truck fixed

truck was acting up now every time i drove it so i had to call the dealer and bring it in. i brought with me the tsb, a printout of my codes with the p0720 and a pic of my dash with blank display. on way to dealer my truck dropped from 6 gear to 2nd which was very scary. told service what problem was, they agreed and $900. later i have a new leadframe in the tranny and no problems at all now. hopefully they will recall the 2013s as well so i can get my money back.
