New to threads but I wanted to try to post something out here to help. I have a 2002 lincoln ls with the 3.9 v8. The car was missing slightly for a while. One night on the highway it started slipping out of gear and the check transmission message came across the dash. I got it home and when idling completely normal, in park, the rpm gauge would jump erratically, took it to aamco they told me $2400 for a reman transmission... Well i dont have $2400... Long story short i changed the coils and plugs and its a new car.
 
Whoa....
Glad to hear it just needed a tune up.
You know what Aamco stands for right?
All automatics must come out.
 
Lmao. Thats pretty good. Yeah i couldnt believe it. Can i post videos here? I have a video of what it was doing. I never saw coils make the guages jump like that.
 
It was throwing crankshaft sensor codes and transmission codes misfire codes etc. I put in the new coils and plugs and the lights even shutnoff on their own.
 
There's alot of dealios and doo dad's when you work on anything with me. I probably drive certified mechanics nuts.
