In this video, I show you the exact location and layout of the cylinders and ignition coils on a 2009-2014 Ford F150 3.7L. Knowing exactly how the cylinders are numbered and where each coil is positioned is a critical first step for any DIY vehicle repair, saving you time and keeping you organized before you start pulling parts.
Common symptoms of a faulty ignition coil or cylinder misfire include:
- A flashing or solid Check Engine Light (CEL) with specific misfire codes (such as P0300, P0301, P0302, etc.).
- A rough engine idle, noticeable shaking, or vibrations while stopped.
- Engine hesitation, sputtering, or a major loss of power during acceleration.
Safety First: When working around electrical components and engine bays, your safety is essential. Always protect yourself by wearing safety glasses and protective gloves, and make sure you remain completely focused and attentive throughout the process.
