Like there isn't enough new threads about Coils and Plugs...
I have been noticing a studder when I first start the car. Like it starts right away but kinda chugs like its going to die, then the rpm's jump up to normal. Have noticed a little more vibration sometimes at Idle. No CEL's yet though.
Since there were so many I decided to have a peek at mine. I started with the passenger side. When I pulled the cover off I noticed it was full of moisture. Seemed to all be on the cover itself. I took all the cops and plugs out and the second one back from the front was filled with oil. There was enough oil in there that I couldn't even see the spark plug. All the others were clean.
On the Drivers side, there was no moisture under the cover but the first 3 plugs had oil over them and the far back one was clean.
Also I have noticed with all the rain we're getting here lately that the engine cover is getting wet from the wiper motor seal leaking.
I guess I'm a good candidate for the extended warranty Ford put on the '03's.
