Happens to the best of us, eh?

The EGR stumble was nothing like as bad as it will stumble with wrong firing order...

When you say cross fire, do you mean you had the plug wires routed to the wrong plug or to the wrong place on the dizzy cap? Or do you mean they were just laying across each other?

They were laying across each other. They are now re-routed and the truck runs a heck of a lot better!

Still kinda ticked off about spending all this time, money, new parts etc. into the truck and this is how it turns out. At least I have a bunch of new parts that should last a long time LOL.

Not 9mm wires,,,, far from being the good stuff... I got the Autozone brand in there. My mechanic says that i should go to Ford and get the proper ones from them. As in they will be the right lengths.
