RE: 1999 Ford Ranger XLT, V6, 4.0L Vin X.
The past month I started experiencing rough idle, jerking situation at various speeds and lack of power under load like going up hill. Otherwise no problem starting and no problem conking out on the road. However CEL indicates the following: P0351, P0352, P0353 indicating problem with the Primary/Secondary Ignition circuit.
I replaced the Ignition Coil, all 6 spark plugs and associated wires. That corrected the idling and performance problems. The vehicle runs great however, the CEL codes kept appearing despite erase.
I benched check the ignition coil and it tested good according to OEM parameters. Can I keep using my truck even with the CEL codes on? Or is there something else that need checking.
I appreciate any input.
