As you can tell from the title. I have a serious problem.
It starts out the other day, im experiencing a jerking/studdering only when going over say 40 mph and upshifting into higher gears. So I pop the hood and check spark plugs. everything seems to be ok. So now im thinking transmission. I read the forums and see others have experienced the same thing and it was trans. So I figure it would prolly be ok to drive it one more day, my appointment at the shop is monday. Well this morning, the check engine light comes on on the way to work. I make it ok. On the way back home, shuddering problem is getting worse then I hear boom. Pull over and look under the hood to see front driver coil broken and spark plug seating neatly on intake manifold.
I like Fords, but I have to admit. This is by far the worse car I've ever owned.
Any info would be a big help.
