check engine light wont come on
i have a 2002 f150 5.4L 4x4 and it is driving me crazy. for over a year now my check engine light will not come on when there is a problem. i have had to replace 3 coil packs and none of them have made the check engine light come on, and now its on seven cylinders again and its a pain in the a$$ trying to figure out problems with it with no engine light. last month the spark plug blew out of the head and the engine light still didn't come on. any body have any ideas why it will not come on? i am sooo close to selling this truck because its such a pain, but i like the way it looks a lot so i'd prefer to keep it. PLEASE help, thanks

Not everything on the engine is monitored. Some components will fail and never set a check engine light. There are certain thresholds that have to be met during a number of drive cycles in order for the check engine light to be illuminated.
Scan your vehicle and see if there are any faults stored. There may not be since the check engine light is not on. Or they may be old ones that havnt been reset.
