[QUOTE="03Cobra1979, post: 10650539, member: 78493"] My wife and I were driving home the other day and the CEL light came on. When I got home I check the light it was codes P0300 & P0308. So I decide that I will clear the codes flash it to factory and see if it happens again. I start the car and drive maybe 5 miles and the CEL light reappears. So I check the codes and it is the same two. random Miss fire and Cylinder #8 miss fire. But this time I could tell the car was clearly running on only 7 cylinders. I had a loss of power and lots of shaking at idle. I get home I swap COP #2 with COP #8 and clear the codes and see if I get a cylinder #2 miss fire. I still popped up with #8 So then I decided I am going to change the plugs. I was taking out the plugs and my wrench slipped and hit the positive battery terminal. It throws a small spark and I say SHIT! and finish swapping the plugs. I go to start the car and it instantly says service advance track, When i go to back it out of the drive there is no power steering. It is still idling rough so new plugs did not cure the problem either. I looked at all the fuses none seem blown. I could not find in the owners manual where the fuses for these two items might be located either. Anyway I am open to suggestions before I just have it towed off to ford on Monday. P.S. sorry for the novel. [/QUOTE]
