Al right i have a 94 ranger 2.3 and it is getting on my last nerve. :mad:
I changed the spark plugs one day,about 3 weeks ago, and it ran like a champ then recently it started to shake and knock and feel like it was about to die on me.It idles bad and just feels ugly. So i pop the hood come to find out no spark coming from one port on my ignition coil, so i buy a coil bolt off old bolt on new, the spark is back but it is still doing the same thing! starts off fine then about 30 sec into it back to its problems. What cold it be? I even changed the igntion wire set to see, but to no avail!Can someone please help im goping crazy,losing sleep,hunger, even sex drive...lol. By the way it has 8 spark plugs and i cant figure out the firing order even though im sure i did not displace the wires.

The fire order is on the coil packs. Maybe it's not the ignition. Could have knocked something off, or disconnecting changing plugs.

Try looking for some Vac. leaks as well. You can use starting fluid to help you locate them. If you put a staw (like from WD40) on it you can really pinpoint the problem.
