- '99 XLT 5.0 auto 2wd
The '99 5.0 auto started a low rpm stumble.
Check Engine light eventually came on. Friendly local car parts store said the code is Cyl 3 misfire. Suggested I swap wires with another cylinder and come back and for a rescan.
I put a timing light on various wires. Some spark slow without a skip. Others spark much faster but also skip occasionally.
I suspect whatever is causing the multiple sparks is also causing the skip?
Ideas? I did some searching and didn't this problem.
Thanks!
