Default engine missfire PLEASE HELP

I have a 07 F-150 FX4 with 5.4 triton. I have replaced plugs,coil packs,& injectors. When engine is at idle sometimes it starts to miss & sounds like the engine is coming apart I can give it gas and it smooths out.PLEASE HELP

If you have a scan tool you7 can connect it and see if the MAF is sluggish.

Check your connections to your COP's and you still may have a bad plug...like mentioned above scan it for codes...

Does it miss when your driving it? Could be a bad wire going to 1 of your coils.

My 2006 with 83,000 miles started doing this miss a few weeks ago. It usually smooths out after warming up. Drives smooth just acts up at idle.
