slight rough idle
I have a 99 F150 5.4L with 119k miles on it. Its a great truck other then being a gas hog (13.5 on a good day). I notice there is a slight almost like miss at idle. It has new plugs ( no there not bosch) and two new COP's I already had the great blown plug out of the engine issue fixed. I was wondering what you guys think it may be. It doesnt run rough at all, or seem like theres a miss once driving it. It just seems like a slight vibration (miss) at idle. I had a 97 4.6L and I never had a vibration like this with that tuck

Fuel System Cleaning
PCV valve
Tranny Flush

Check EGRs and O2's
good luck

good point, with a fuel system cleaning what does that consist of? I just ran a bottle of lucas through the fuel tank a few weeks ago.
