P0308 - Thanks!

Hi All,

Just a note of thanks for this board and all it's wisdom. My son's 2002 F150 SCREW had it's first CEL at 71K miles. It was shaking and shuddering between 1K->2K RPMs and so I did many searches to get help. I first changed the fuel filter thanks to instructions on this site. That didn't work so I went to AZ and got a $49 scanner. It showed codes P0308 and P0316. After more searches and a purchase of a COP ($39) at AZ, it took just 10 minutes to replace the COP on cylinder #8 and now she purrs like a kitten. This site and the many contributors gave me the confidence to save several hundred dollars on shop fees.

Thanks!

Tom

Want to thank you Tom!

2003 Expy started running like crap and pulled same codes.

Cylinder #8 COP wasn't the easiest to change but got 'er done.

Saved a lot of money thanks to you!
