2007 Ford Sport trac
2007 (V6) Sport trac misfires occasionally and quickly lurches a bit. Happens anywhere when crusing around 1000 - 1500 RPM - but not enough to see it in the tach, but I can feel it. No codes or dash lights. Some have suggested a possible Transmission issue.

Coil packs. My 4.6L V8 was doing the same. No codes and I replace the coil packs, all problems gone
 












Same thing happened to my f150 back in the day. Feels like the trans its a bad coil pack.
 






I just had this on my V8, replaced the plugs since they probably were never changed from the previous owner. Didnt fix the problem and found 2 coil on plugs were bad. Ford scanned it and found which two(I also did the scan with my scanner too and saw the same thing)

Replaced the 2 coils and worked just fine

Never had any dash lights on

After some time and effort, I learned the Sport trac IS NOT misfiring:
1. Had codes checked - no codes
2. Had plug coils checked - none bad
3. Replace fuel filter (quit a job)

STATUS....The 2007 (V6) Sport trac STILL lurches occasionally and quickly. Specifically around 2000 RPM in fifth and fourth gear (automatic) on a slight grade or pull.

Some have suggested a possible Transmission issue. Any suggestions here?
