Sluggish? 4.4 feels like 4 cylinder...FIXED!!

Thanks to everyone for helping me with the no start problem. That turned out to be the cam sensors.

It has poor acceleration that developed in the last month. I have already checked the fuel pressure static and while under a load. It is good (around 55 psi) and there is no leaking injector or anything. If I really get on it, it will set a code for misfire #8.

I've checked all the connections around the MAF and it is good. It idles perfectly. The plugs are new since the timing chain guide change. BTW it was running great after all that work so I don't think that's the problem. I swapped #8 and #6 coils and the misfire at WOT didn't follow it.

Once in the last week it set a bank 2 catalyst code but it had been idling for awhile and it hasn't come back. I noticed some oil in the spark plug hole for #8 so I cleaned that all out but no fix.


Anyone had this problem?
