Especially since you mentioned that it comes and goes, and that a bump triggered it again. Sounds like a loose UVC harness to me.
What did you use to retrieve the code? If you have something that can run a buzz test, you can find out which side is loose. Or you can pop off both valve covers and put updated clips in to keep them from coming loose again.
As for the question of will you make it home??? Well that might be iffy. Depends on how many bumps are on the road. LOL

how hard is it to upgrade clips can i get them from ford dealership. how hard is it to get the pass side valve cover off? can you reuse the gasket? i will take them bothoff and retighten everything. THANK you for the quick answer. i used an edge cant do a buzz test. i am looking at the termnator gauge/ code reader.
?

Taking the valve covers off isn't too bad. I actually think the passenger side is easier. Valve cover gaskets are re-usable. You should be able to pick up some shims for the harness at Ford or International for not too much money. In a pinch you can even make your own shim to keep it from coming unhooked again.
I ground the edge off a quarter and used it as a shim when I did mine.
i cant thank you guys enough. i put two new harnesses under both valve covers. the drivers side was half unpluged. while i was under there i retighten all the stuff you all said to tighten. along with the quater trick. so hopefuly i wont have to do this again. i would give you guys reps if i could figure out how.
