I've got one. It's throwing code P0302 which is the cylinder 2 misfire

At a minimum I would put a new Motorcraft sp546 and new boot and spring on #2. Those are the two most common fixes.

I just replaced the entire coil. I'm going to try the torque method and see if that works... if not I'll investigate a fuel injector. Only time will tell.....

What about the Spark Plug ???

Cstrickland33

To make sure it is torqued to 25ft (I think that's right) I just put some conditioner in it last night to see if that will help it run.

Code has not thrown since I ou the conditioner it. I'm curious if anyone had seen this code go off and on? I figured if it was the spark plug it would constantly throw the misfire code. Does that mean the spark plug is couldn't wiggle itself loose every now and then? I'm also still trying to diagnoses the gas smell in the cab.

Plugs, plugs, plugs. Shying away from the problem won't make it go away, especially with the smell of fuel in the cab. It's an 11th gen F150... it is not going to be cheap to own or maintain, but will get drastically more expensive to own and maintain if not maintained. Think plugs are costly? Wait until you have to do the timing job.

Misfire? Check. Wet plug? Check. Fuel smell in cabin? Check. Replace all 8 plugs with the 546s. At 130k miles, you should be on your 3rd set of plugs by now anyway.
