I'm looking to get some knowledge on the difference between the Ford IC vs. OEM (on ebay, internet, etc.)
Starting to get some signs one of the coils is going and I just turned 100k on a 03/06 build, V8. Plugs were changed roughly 50/60k and one coil about a year and a half ago.
Stuttering around 40 MPH, engine light flickers on and off. I noticed it big time today going up a big hill and the truck just lost power about half way up and the engine light was flashing. As soon as I got to the top the power resumed and the lights did not come on.
With this mileage and the fact that I want to keep the truck I'm leaning towards replacing them all. Ford direct is roughly $500 parts. vs. $100-$150 OEM. I like buying factory stuff but the differential is too much to not look into.
Thank you in advance.
