I think it was missing because of the coil pak connection, it runs really well now you can hear the manifold leak a bit. I am going to check on the the wiring. I am not set up to do this kind of thing really but it is beginning to seem like there is light at the end of the tunnel. I really appreciate you taking time to try and help. The book I have is Hayne’s, I would like to find a fuse diagram or maybe even a service manual but when I have tried I have spent a lot of time searching and finding things I wasn’t sure that were right. Do youknow where I could find these things. The transmission was fine before all of this, I probably gotthe wires to close to engine somewhere.

Thank you, there is on stud I can’t figure out how to get to, frustration had set in, so I will try the two nut system tommorow

I removed one head; I had a pretty hard time getting the fuel rail back on ended up with a fuel leak but I was able to learn a lot from that, that I wouldn’t have otherwise. I struggled a bit with putting the intake on but by the third time I was so tired it seemed like it went smoother. I thought that it might have been easier to do this whole job with the engine out of the vehicle but I have never done that either and I am sure it comes with its own set of problems. After I got everything together I started it and it ran sluggishly, but to be honest I was stoked that it ran I was so worried about timing and I didn’t know what it would sound like if it was out of time or how long to run it stuff like that. I knew that with the exhaust manifold not sealed it would be loud but in another surprise it fit tight enough to be not too bad( the problem with the studs is that the frame won’t allow the manifold to come off and there is one stud I just can’t find away to get too, I called a muffler shop but when I told him it was a navigator he said he wanted no part of it). So the first time I ran it about 10 mins. the motor shook a little and seemed like it needed gas, I turned it off. The next day I went to crank it NOTHING, I learned how use a meter and checked all the fuses and listened to the relay click when I turned the key, finally I unhooked the battery for about an hour hooked it back up and it started I ran it for about 1 hr. the longer it ran the better it ran but I didn’t put the pulleys on tight enough so it screamed . , that’s about the time I found this website. Long story shorter I pulled codes P0113,P0353,P0358 checked the coil pack connections cleared codes started pulled codes P0113 let it run a few minutes and a light with 2 circles D with a / started blinking. I turned it off pulled codes P0113,P0743,P0755,P1747 which the book doesn’t even list…anyways I don’t think the engine is bad, but I wonder where to start, at the transmission and trace the wires to the next connection?

I bought an ’03 Lincoln Navigator, I know zero about mechanical things. The first thing I thought I would do is change the spark plugs and oil. So I tried to do this finding that for me it was a extremely difficult task to remove the back plugs. Also one of the cylinders had a heli coil and when I took it out it removed the threads. I took it to a mechanic to see if they could help me but they wanted more money than I could afford two of them told me I needed a new engine. One was a pretty nice guy and told me about time certs, and head removal. I did all that and put the everything back together and it runs, I am so surprised! There are a few issues I need help with and every time I Get a new and different code. I just got 3 new ones P0743,P0755, and P1747 to go with a reoccurring P0113. Also the ABS light is on and the emergency brake sensor. And one of my biggest problems is that I wasn’t able to put the header gasket on when assembled the heads, I thought I would be able to do it fom the bottom, now I cant get the studs out of the engine. Any suggestions from someone that has real knowledge of these issues would be so appreciated.
