    hmm looked like the tool was needed.

    anyways yea i lost a screw that was capping something, but i got a new screw and capped it all....like i said it ran great from saturday-tuesday night.

    it was the plugs i have circled here. they were capped and i had to recap one. i think that is smog related. im still learning the 5.0

    Did you ever change your fuel pump? I have to do that with every FOX I get. I will have a 155lph for sale soon if you want it. It has about 3500 miles on it.

    It wont be any of your sensors then. They would trigger a light. I would say fuel pump or fuel filter. Get a fuel pressure gauge and test that. A filter is easy to change. If it was your TPS, it would send a code for low voltage or high voltage. I, like colin, would lean toward a fuel delivery issue.
