OK I know this has been brought up a million time, but.... this one is alittle different. This is my first Lincoln (maybe my last) . It is a 2003 Lincoln LS Sport 3.9 V8. I am having a severe miss (like a dead cyclinder) that seems to get worse after the car wams up (about 10 miles or so). When you first crank it up it drives pretty good, then it goes into a death spiral. It will stat to shudder, missing while accelerating, missing while at idle. I keep getting a Coil E Primary/Secondary Circuit Malfunction. I have already replaced the coil pack, replaced the injector, and I do not see an oil around the plug - so I don't think the valve cover is leaking. I bought the car at an auction and did some research after the fact. A dealership had the car and it had been previously sugared. The dealership replaced the fuel pump, fuel filters, injectors, catalytic converters, flushed the lines, clean the tank, and a bunch of other stuff and they could still not get it running right. When I first drive the car in the morning it drives good - lots of power, so I don't think that it is a sticking valve. Any help would be appreciated. I know you guys have a ton of experience with Lincolns so I thought ya'll should have some good ideas.
Thanks
