Last night while driving my AU it started to miss at idle, it then missed
and sputtered under acceleration over the next 5 klms until I got home. I
checked it out while in my garage but could only get it to run well while
fiddling with the spark plug leads. As I needed the car over the weekend and
didn't have time to work on it myself I considered myself lucky to get it
into my local dealer today, after checking it out they called and told me it
needed new plugs and a couple of leads, total $200, when I queried why the
plugs would be crook after only 25k I was informed that at the 50k service
someone had replaced the plugs with Bosch instead of Motorcraft and that was
the problem. I had my car tuned at 50k by Home Tune instead of my Ford
dealer so I couldn't argue this issue, the car is now running smoothly and
I've been parted with my dollars. Such is life!!!
