Hello

yesterday i did drive through a parking lot that was flooded somewhat, but didn't think other wise for a 03 ford expedition, this happened yesterday morning. The late afternoon i went to get food, no issues than!!! than today as i was driving to work, i noticed AND I EXPERIENCED THESE ENGINE NOISES FROM SIMPLE things like oil change or new filter, but in this case i am getting on my code reader

po306 and po316, i am thinking either the oil changed lube placed lied and i had low oil causing the misfire, this happened once before to low oil and a plug ford motercraft oil was used, now same issue i had motocraft oil for this cycle for the past 5000 miles, so it seems either driving that semi flooded lot  caused it or fords motorcraft oil is total bs and i ran low and caused a misfire? 

should i wait tomorrow, and see if more dry air helps , or get the mechanic  get rid of that garbage oil, I LIKE PENZOIL and change the plugs? 

 
Get rid of the oil! It's relatively cheap to get a tune up compared to running bad oil through your engine and messing it up. Then you are really screwed. And check your oil yourself to make sure you have enough in there. My husband likes Mobile 1 synthetic oil, but that's where you lose me, I don't know why he thinks it's better than another brand and I think it's more expensive.

I'm no car expert, but I had to have an engine rebuilt once because I was relying on my boyfriend to make sure it always had fluids in it. Big mistake! I'm sure you know that if you are having weird engine noises you need to get it checked out asap.

 
Hi there, chances are that water got into somewhere that it wasn't supposed to. I highly doubt the problem is related to your oil.

See how things are today, if it's still acting up you may have to change the plugs and if that doesn't work then maybe get a mechanic to give her a quick look over. 

Regards,  T..

The motorcraft oil that I used for my Lincoln was good semi-synthetic oil and was factory recommended. I don't think you have an oil issue.  Let us know what happens next.

 
it got replaced today but not sure why the mechanic put 10w40 oil when i requested penzoil high mileage oil either 5w20/30 , unless they make penzoil 10w40???? , 137,000 miles... weird??? 

truck runs good again <3

  4. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @AnnaSofia my bad. I’m just really down bad right now. And yes we are all over his thread. I’ll keep the SB positive I’m sorry.
  5. A @ AnnaSofia: Thanks @Deepnorth !!
  6. Deepnorth @ Deepnorth: @AnnaSofia absolutely. Sometimes I cringe when I look at the shop box because I never knew what I’m going to see but I think you worded it very well.
  7. A @ AnnaSofia: I got cut off. .. be careful that it’s not some non-verified vend trying to swoop in and scam if u do post “who offers it.” Amd finally, I know I’m guilty but try to keep this stuff to DM’s or the forum threads instead of SB. Good luck Ronald!
  8. A @ AnnaSofia: whoever you guys are talking about I hope you have posted your experience in his thread so people know. I agree with Layne that a brand new vend is more likely to want to save the day. But also be careful
  9. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @st1ckyf1ng4z I wish I could man. I’m rural and new to town idk anyone.
  10. st1ckyf1ng4z @ st1ckyf1ng4z: Hit the b10cķ if you’re in a p!nch, depending on where you are located that book is not hard to find. @RonaldDonald
  11. L @ Layne_Cobain: @RonaldDonald post your question about anyone who can express 4 or overnight in the “who offers it” thread maybe get a hit from one of these new vendors with that on the menu there’s a good # of them now
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: I know he talked such a good game with me when I emailed and in his thread @RonaldDonald and your right begging for ppl to leave good review but then ghosts everyone not a good look at all
  13. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: @Layne_Cobain I have not :( and still nothing on ID. I’m freaking out and WDs are coming very soon. Idk why this dude cant just say something. I really trusted him, I could have/should have went with my regular. But no, homie was begging for good reviews and now he does some ghosting to new custees (3-4 of us) not good. ANYONE KNOW AN EXPRESS OR OVERNIGHT/2nd DAY with some #4
  14. Sakshi @ Sakshi: Finally got my lazy ass around to donating, whats crackin fam
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hear anything @RonaldDonald ?
  16. RonaldDonald @ RonaldDonald: Really hoping this day gets better. Alllll I need is someone who respects peoples time, money and concerns. Why is that so hard for some people. I’m as respectful as I possibly can be until I can’t anymore. PLEASE just stick to your word vendors. I know I’m not the only one.
