Hesitation under load after intake Replacement.


After the intake replacement, I ran into some hesitation issues under load. I ordered MSD Wires and MSD Coil Packs. I'm hoping that this solves my misfire issue. The #4 & 5 spark plugs were soaked in coolant. As well as the spark plug boots. I went over everything else in detail and looks good. #5 cylinder had coolant in it. I was able to wick it out with a nylon rope, several pieces later, I can insert nylon rope in the cylinder and it comes back dry. I checked all the other cylinders and they are dry as well.

Decided to replace the spark plugs while in hopes that was the issue. Still had the hesitation issue. I inspected the plug gaps, all @ 1.3 per the ford service book.



 
I checked everything real closely and noticed that the fuel injectors #1 & #2 didn't look like the rest. checked the book and guess what - they where rotated 45 degrees. Fixed that and now everything is okay.

Well Guess what - No more hesitation...
