Ok, a little while ago my buddies dad decided to clean my engine for me. he used degreaser and water and was pretty liberal. Now I have a misfire in my number 5 cylinder. At first i thought water had slipped past the coil boot and gotten to my plug. I changed the plugs (nothing as wet either) thinking that was the problem. Still missing. Any ideas what it could be?
on the same note, i thought there was supposed to be a spring inside the boot that touched the plug. My 5,6, and 7 cylinders have no spring. They just have a metal piece that looks like it probably touches the top of the plug. I just had Ford replace my intake becuase it cracked at the thermostat housing. I now have the 01+ intake with the aluminum crossover. Would that be why i dont have contact springs or did the Ford tech screw up and not put in springs? Sorry for the long write up.
