Hey guys been a while since I've been on here, long since sold my ranger however this is the only place I've ever gotten decent advice about vehicles on the web. If any of you know anything about 5.4's that would be awesome.
I recently purchased a 2004 f150 with the 5.4
Developed a rough idle not long after purchasing and a slight rod knock after changing the oil.
Since purchased I've changed the spark plugs, replace the fuel pump driver module and cleaned the throttle body and maf. I cant seem to shake the shaky motor. The rod knock worries me a little but a truck with 130k wont sound perfect. I've done a lot of research into this and cannot find a definitive answer. I just hope the rod knock isn't tied to the rough idle.
