Lightbulb Another 5.4 missing

Well, here is another one, I have a 2001 S/C with 5.4, the other day it started missing like crazy under a load while driving in overdrive. Check engine light finally came on, pulled codes, had lean bank codes on #1,2,7,8. Pulled all coils and boots, found water in every plug area and rusted plugs. Replaced all plugs and boots, still missing. Pulled codes again after driving, #2 misfire. Replaced coil from Autozone, still missing, pulled my hair out for 2 days, decided to try another coil from discount auto, runs great now. Autozone sold me a bad coil, I'm sure not on purpose, but wanted to let everyone know in case they have the same problem.

Good to hear you got it figured out.

I've now had one AutoZone coil for about 6 months and 10K miles and haven't had any problems. Yet, of course...
