[QUOTE="Defiant, post: 1428340, member: 21935"] Pulled 4 plugs and they were all still good. Have 4 more to go. I did fire the car up again and this time it started as normal and the sound was gone. I was suspecting either a blown plug or an exhaust leak but now I'm stumped since it went away. I suppose its possibly one of the idler pulleys chirping but I figure that would be rpm related and not load related. Edit: nevermibd the sound is back. It's more of a ticking sound and it happens on acceleration. checked 7 plugs and they were good except one was a tiny bit looser than the rest so I tightened it up some. One more to pull but it's hard to get to... the idle is a bit shakier than before, and there's a CEL on. For some reason my obd scanner won't communicate with the ford ecu so I can't read the code. edit: got the reader to go through by flicking the ignition switch on and off multiple times. Code is p0354 ignition coil D primary / secondary circuit so funny enough that coil is cylinder #4, the one that I haven't been able to remove. I'll try that one again tomorrow as I don't really feel like messing with it anymore today. In the meantime does anybody know what this fuse is for? It goes right into the fender well [img]https://imger.co/images/2017/07/29/Kdtm.jpg[/img] [img]https://imger.co/images/2017/07/29/KnKL.jpg[/img] [img]https://imger.co/images/2017/07/29/KE1C.jpg[/img] you can see it's all melted and burned [/QUOTE]
