    So it popped and loss power, but continued to run? If so, a coil pack would be a good guess, or it spit a sparkplug, 4.6/5.4 were bad for that. Spit plug is a cheaper fix.
    Anyone you know have an OBD2/3 scan tool? You can pull the code and call the Ford dealer parts counter. They can tell you what the code is, it would save you some cash. Good luck, and post up if you need more help.

    Had to pull over for some sleep within 100 miles of home... but I am back, in time to shower and head to work!
    Roach Motel in Winston-Salem = $60
    Parts Labor, etc for truck = $450
    People's reaction to me walking around the mall in a bad mood wearing my Grumpy's Diner t-shirt = PRICELESS!

    I had a wonderful time and my adventure didn't end when I left Robbinsville! I can hardly wait for spring!

    Thanks to everyone for the email, texts, PMs and calls - you guys are the best!
