Hi and thanks in advance for any useful advise. I've been going thru the forms and have yet to find any info on this cars current main issue.
Cylinders 1-4. Car had multiple CEL issues and now has news plugs and coils, car "runs" fine. Now after about 4-5 start ups it wont start unless I flip some coils. Doesn't matter which ones. Thought some oil might be in the plug area and the is a slight burnt oil smell in the cabin after the engine is warm and you come to a stop.
I decided to replaces the valve cover seals on the passenger side and now Im dealing with previous service (someones else ****ty work) stripped bolts holes and figuring out how to remove a snapped valve cover bolt. But this is a different frustration
As for the electrical issues with the coils I had the car at the Ford Dealership in SiouxFalls and they failed to find the correct issues along with a smaller local shop also failing (nice waste of time and money). So I went from having little to ZERO faith in professional shops to fix my car.
Any clues to why the no start with new coils?
