Low Idle
ok i drive 2000 miles across country this past week
truck is a 97 f150 with 160,000 miles 4.6l
while driving,it began to drive with a hasitation but had no place to stop and check things out
tues it spit out the #5 plug (2nd time in 6 months) while changing all plugs i had batt disconnected and cleaned MAF
also found #4 and #2 plugs very loose and #5 plug stripped installed hele coil and everything runs good, but it now has a low idle and stalls at stops
after connecting batt i let eng run for about 10 min at the curb then drive it for test run,
?????????? did i let it run too long at the curb and it "learned" wrong
should i disconnect batt again and try resetting computer again?
no idle problems befor i did work and not throwing any codes
