I just retired from playing mechanic for a few years. A scan tool would be the first order of business. Now a problem arises in how badly it is running. If your misfire is severe enough, you will be filling the converter with too much un-burnt fuel which can cause converter failure fairly quickly. So the question now becomes one of drive it to the parts store for a diag and possibly buying a coil pack or two or whatever and then installing prior to taking it home to keep the converter happy. OR Take it down to the dealer and let them swap parts trying to fix it. Yes, Dealer mechs have historically installed parts from the pats room only to return them when they don't fix the problem. The scan is the first order of business. Now if you don't like the dealer. . . A lot of people don't. . . Talk to other people in the area as to who they take their vehicles to, Especially other Ford Owners. Contact the BBB and inquire about complaints lodged. You can also do an online search for complaints, just be able to look past the people who say, "Last week they replaced the radiator and then the muffler fell off" One has nothing to do with the other. Good Luck.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
