yes very much an issue, do some searching and you'll see why. swap them out with some motorcraft filters and I bet the rough running issue will be gone.

That is a cylinder contribution code for #3 cylinder. It could indicate an injector issue.

Get the proper fuel filter installed and then I would highly recommend a fuel pressure gauge.

The autoenginuity can not read fuel pressure - there is no Ford sending unit.
