so you think you had a bad week?

It all started last Monday. Car sputtered twice on the way to work and stalled three times in the half mile home... took the car to the dealer after I couldn't find the issue and there was no signal going to the MAF.
Then I found this...

Well fixed the crimp connection and it still ran bad...
Hey want check the plugs?!? Pulled them out and they all seemed fine. After that it sounded like it was cammed and ran like absolute shit.
After three days of chasing a ghost I tried a different dealership, turned out the MAF wire had touched the valve cover and shorted out the sensor. And my dumbass cracked three plugs by over tightening them.
Could it get worse?! Ford told me they could get one step colder plugs the next day (only reason I didn't do it myself) well Friday turned into Saturday, Saturday into Monday and I finally got her back today. Of course only after walking ten miles to the dealer lol.
Just glad this is finally over and it's running strong again

Hang in there. I've had bad days, too, like when I had to remove a head to get a damn spark plug out.

Did you solder the wires back this time?

No, but I'm gonna have my tuner do that when I get the retune. It's recrimped right now and all wrapped up, it's not going anywhere for the time being.


I could not imagine having to pull the head off for a plug, that would piss me off so much lol

My week has gone pretty good so far, but I have 14 in-laws coming over on Thanksgiving, so my week will be getting a lot worse in about 48 hours. LOL

Sorry to hear that man, but glad to hear it was nothing serious, and that she's running well now.
