what engine?
how many miles?
when's the last time you changed the plugs, dependent upon mileage of course?
have you had any service performed lately?
how is it performing?
hesitating?
surging?

sorry for lack of info, new purchase , bought it used 12,000 miles 5.4 engine , drove great but felt alittle like the exhaust was backed up sometimes, before the light came on it really was missing because you could feel it surge and then almost stall at each traffic light

hmmmm, I'd try posting this question, or better yet - provide the link to this thread - in the 4.6/5.4L modular section....you'll get a lot more answers.
The symptoms make it sound like the IAC (idle air control) valve or even an O2 sensor (mine has 5), but not if it's throwing that code.
