2002 F150 4.6 is driving me insane.
At 40-50 mph truck is jerking and feels like tranny is slipping. Take it out of OD, let off gas, or give it gas and it runs great. No check engine light or codes showing. I've taken it to 2 transmission shops and both say its not the tranny or OD, but an engine miss. Replaced the spark plugs today and now worse than it was. I read on the F150 forum that the coil on packs fail and are a common problem. Well I found a pack of 8 on ebay for 90.00 shipped and plan to replace all of them next week. Any other suggestions or FORD owners experienced this?

i have a 2003 fx4 150 . the same thing happen to my truck i thought trans was going out .i just kept driving it after about 2 months the check engine light came on and it was a coil pack on the drivers side. that makes two that has went out. i am saying that is the problem. i heard ford could read codes with their machine with out the check engine light on but it will set you back about 80 bucks . a coil pack is only 20 or 30 bucks if i rememebr right . good luck

On my 2000 F-150 I had a very similar problem. Turned out to be a coil pack and EGR valve. Both very easy to replace on the 5.4 engine.
