Hi guys

I replaced coil pack, plugs an wires ran fine for 2 days on way to work last night engine light blinked felt loss of power so when i got to work i plugged my reader in an now error code for cylinder#4
I checked for loose wires all tight i know plugs all gaped right
I have searched the forums and i am a bit lost any suggestions where to go from here??

any help would be greatly appreciated

So took it for a drive got on the freeway on ramp see if it would do it again and when the RPM get above 3000 engine light flashes and i get the error.

I have a 2004 ranger Edge w/3.0 at 110,000 miles. Just bought it last year w/about 100,000miles. Shortly after purchase, I started getting the cylinder misfire codes, multi cylinder misfire code & misfire v1000 revs. I then noticed a plug wires had been changed & previous owner claimed No Knowledge of MIL codes. The codes will not reset/clear for more than 10 miles. Runs fine on open road but in city traffic or sitting idle it will begin to misfire & ck eng light flashes (wanting to stall from stops) Rev eng to 1500 rpm helps eliminate the misfiring. I've heard of the TSB for this problem & that it is a manuf head alignment problem from the build. I'm lookin for money for another engine!

If you find anything out, please share!!!
