maybe you just don't know how to read... considering a 2 is just a backwards 5.

are you dyslexic? tongue.gif

^ haha Sparty Party is right, since Ford had everything updise nwod you probably had the thought the 5 was the 2.

well, at least the injectors are universal to the car? I also hope you kept the one that you replaced thinking it was bad.

the worst possible people to be in a "professional" environment that do not know anything about what they do. what is worse is that instead admitting to no knowing and looking it up like a reasonable minded person would do they just act as if they know and fvck you over in the process.

So it might be a good idea not to rely on those ppl. but good luck faith

well here is the update

i pulled cyl 2s spark plug and put it on the wire and with the car running i tested it against metal and it created a arc

while the spark plug was missing i noticed no fuel was coming out
so i got my long screwdriver and using it like a stephiscope(sp?) i listened to cyl 2s injector
it was infact dead

so i replaced it started teh car up and once again rough running and misfire

by now it was gettin dark and im tryin to hurry up and figure this out i pull of cyl 2s spark plug wire to see if it was still actin up on cyl 2 and it was misfiring there while the plug was out i noticed that the coil was still firing inside of the coil pack(a arc to the outside metal) so i replaced the coil pack

still the same thing rough running and misfire

by now ive replaced

2 injectors, spark plug wires, EGR valve, and the coil pack for a grand total of about 400 dollars and it still hasnt fixed anything BUT now that all that has been replaced it starts acting "different" instead of it sounding like its missing one cylinder now it sounds like a entire side of the motor is missing and now im not gettin a check engine light

i walk back to the tail pipe and take a quick wiff yup rotton egg smellin sulfur

so

now i think the cats are dead

i figure the cat died and took out the rest of that other crap from the back pressure

and i wouldnt have even known until i replaced all that other crap

friggin awesome now i gotta find a way to get some new cats on that im half tempted just to punch them out and say fudge it and put it for sale

man i hate fords

majik

I'm gonna say it's a clogged cat. I suggest you get a new one.

Dmitry

get a test pipe instead of cat

well injector 2 is dead AGAIN the tech is still tryin to figure out why...

he thinks the ecu is fried and sending it bad signals until it dies at least i got a warranty on the injectors( i think...)
