[QUOTE="glittle75, post: 556900, member: 8675"] make it throw the check engine light, then swing it by auto zone and have them pull the code. it could be alot of different things. and having the code will help alot in diagnosing it. so far as spark plugs, they aren;t that bad if you have a swivel joint. make sure you only put motorcraft or NGK plugs in it. anything else will just cause problems. so far as waking it back up, i would start with a basic tune-up. change plugs, all the fluids, grab a drop-in K&N air filter, then clean all the sensors. MAF, IAC, aal that stuff. that would be a good start. make sure to post the code if you get it pulled, and we'll help as much as possible. [/QUOTE]
