i cant get on it at every light my tires are too expensive, any idea what the price is on the sct tuner also i have a 5 speed i havent been able to find a tuner for a manual transmisson, i bought the airaid intake i here airaid is a good brand. i saw they had a stoyger performance package that had exhaust an intake and a chip is that worth it evn though i have the intake and the exhaust?

Never heard of Stoyger(unless you mean Troyer and its just a typo) performance package. If you mean troyer then the package he offers is one that he has tested to make sure the parts work well with each other to give you more HP/TQ. I got the Stage 1 kit from them(minus the exhaust) for the 97-98 F150 4.2 and I have nothing but good thiings to say about it.

1.) incorrect grade of fuel
2.) bad timing
3.) carbon build up
4.) incorrect spark plugs/gap
5.) malfunctioning fuel system

I don't know about the knock but you might make sure the MAF is plugged in. On my old truck I forgot to plug it in and when I put one on my current truck, guess what, I forgot to plug it in as well. LOL. Ran like crap both times.

please anyone correct me if i am wrong. i probably am
but the 4.2L is a stroked 3.8L like in a V6 mustang. it is the same bore, just longer stroke. so i think you can use performance parts for a 3.8L on your 4.2L as long as there is space for it to be put there. i think headers are one issue in the not enough space dept.

lol do you mean "correct...i am probably wrong" or "correct info"? i also forgot to mention that the info is for the exterior of the engine. the internals i have no clue what works and what doesnt. by the way, i know for a fact that the 4.2L is a stroked 3.8 and that the bore is the same. i wasnt sure about the interchangeable parts part

i took my spare out threw it in the bed of my truck, they ran the pipes together until over the rear axle then they split going around the fuel tank
