hey guys my name is devin. im a dodge/mopar guy thats completely new to the 5.4 scene. ive done a few upgrades and recently fixed a few previous owner "F ups". starting with for some reason the on the #1 injector one wire was CUT that has been my biggest issue. that was a roadside fix. and the pvc hoses looked like swiss cheese. issues im dealing with now are my factory sub sounds like crap so that needs to be changed, #3 coil is acting up( the first owner said there was a check engine light that came on for it but it hasnt come on for me since i fixed that injector wire and that was on #1 cylinder), and it has a NASTY random skip between 1000-2000 RPMs(feels like the motor is falling on its face), and i think the blend door is stuck halfway open or something there is really crappy heat and ive back flushed it with water and air it is comfortable but not warm/hot.

i still need to finish with the tune up on it but so far my wife is happy. it is her rig BTW.

any help with these issues would be great. thanks guys and im sure i will enjoy reading abouit your rigs and talking to all of you!

p.s. if any of you have pictures of your expys with 2.5-3" of lift with 285s or 315s can i see them im trying to decide what i want for tires.

Welcome!

I would guess that the stumble is caused by coils. But could be several things.

As far as your heat issue, that could also be a partially blocked heater core. But the blend door is the notorious culprit!
