I thought the previous owner had removed the thermostat. So removed the upper hose and looked in the thermostat housing and saw a thermostat. Pulled the housing off and this is what I found http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/g350/apate1973/87%20conquest/thermostat_zps7bfaf057.jpg

I have a 1987 conquest project or rolling shell. It has some passenger side damage and needs an engine and a clutch. I have a tranny for it and some spare parts. It has SHP front wheels and full 3inch exhaust all the way back. Everything worked before the engine was pulled. I was gonna fix her up but thats not gonna happen anymore. Sunroof doesnt leak and interior is in good condition.$600 OBO located in woodinville east of seattle   http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/cto/3338634723.html

Posting here for greater exposure, hoping some Ford guys are amongst us.   Got a 98 Ford Expedition 5.4 auto, 2WD. Number 6 keeps giving me misfire codes. Was running fine, problem started suddenly.   I replaced plugs, coil on plug. Problem went away for a while. Came back with a vengeance.   Replaced coil on plug 4X's over now. Plugs, etc. have not done compression test yet.   Problem persists, specially under load. Got sick of searching the Ford sites and google. Some info points to EG
