The fifty cent mod is where you take two quarters and cut them like a D shape. You then insert them in between the UVCH connector under the Valve Cover. This keeps the connector nice and tight so it does not come apart. Ford makes a retainer kit, but they charge about $20 for it.

Here is an article on the UVCH problem: http://www.forddoctorsdts.com/articl...icle-05-10.php
