Random Misfire, Loud Engine Knock
Only 124k on it. I say "only" loosely, but I considered this somewhat low considering the condition when I first bought it. Drove like a dream when I test drove it, that was my whole reasoning behind it. The more I think about it, I'm thinking that the timing chain may be loose, and that's...- MattChadwick

Also, if the timing chain were to have jumped a tooth, wouldn't the timing be off consistently? I can feel the power loss of each cylinder and it varies while I'm driving.

My 5.4 that I've only had for about 200 miles started randomly misfiring in cylinders 2,3, and 4. It has a very loud engine knock, sounds almost like a diesel at this point. I'll be driving down the road and the engine will lose practically all power, but eventually will gain it back. It started...- MattChadwick
