So it's a Mercedes then? Lol, just busting your ***** man. I just got rid of a Dodge actually. We bought a new car for my wife, traded in the Durango I was driving (it was a POS) and now back in my F150. It's a long story as to why I was in that Durango to begin with, I missed my truck badly.

its like i said the 16 plugs of hemi are easier than cyl 8 alone lol, the only reason it never got done is because it started raining and i hadnt pulled it yet. still,theres no cel so as much as it is a possibility, is there another part that could be causing the situation, or does this fit the boot. (meanwhile im replacing the sway bar linkage lol)
Anyway, how many miles do those plugs in the back have on them, any idea ? I'll assume those are Motorcraft. If it's misfiring after about 45 mph plus (common), the misfire count may not be high enough yet. But , or and, - if the gap is stretched out from wear on the back two, it's not going to run very well. Number 4 and 8 might not be so bad if you flip the fuel rail up and onto the intake. I always do, - I hate crap in the way. If you decide to do that, lay some rags down around the coils and injectors first!
IMO, you should be able to determine or distinguish a misfire problem driving it. Didn't you say the problem doesn't happen with you driving it, - or haven't you had the chance yet ?

Well, your a good sport. I don't care how many plugs you have. Anyway, how many miles do those plugs in the back have on them, any idea ? I'll assume those are Motorcraft.

Plugs should be good enough I guess. Although I consider ignitition integrity important, it would bug me too much leaving that older plug in there.
BTW, - might want to stay away from that Mexican food until it's fixed.

Lmao you made my gut jiggle on that one, i need to make that a sig, i was simply making an analogy of what happens when the truck gets to speed, moms bf finally put in his 2 cents that they hit a curb and might have lost a weight and he aired the low tire up to 38psi while the others are at a stock 32ish, so theres a weight missing possibly and a over filled tire lol
