PO316 is misfire on startup
PO302 is misfire on cylinder number 2

To find arc-over, start car at night, and look in the dark at the entire routing of the plug wire. I have seen where there was a faint glow the full length of a plug wire.

At a minimum replace the number 2 plug wire. Make sure it is seated on both ends and clean of corrosion.

SOURCE: Misfires and

You will need to replace no 5 and no 6 coil pack and spark plugs. P0316 is random missfire that computer could not detect the cylinder that was causing it,just knew one was missfiring.
Coil packs are common concern on these vehicles. Can get oil leak into the coil pack wells and may also even get moisture into them.
If yours is a 3.9L it may be involved in owner satisfaction program 07M07 or 07N09 in which they will cover them under the program for up to 10yrs or 100000 miles which ever comes first.

you have to remove the whole headlight assembly, then pop off the front cover pull the old bulb out and put the new one in. reverse the process to re-install. there is a small plastic tab on the topfront of the headlight assembly, that is what you need to release to get the clear cover off and get inside.

SOURCE: Ford Escape 2003. Engine suddenly overheat.

Engine over heating can be caused by a number of things. When you say the water pump and radiator appear to be ok I am also guessing that you checked the coolant level to make sure it is normal.

If the level is low then you obviously have a leak. Insufficient coolant circulating will not cool the motor properly because it won't be able to draw enough heat out. If the level is normal then you need to check the thermostat to make sure it is opening properly. To do this, run the motor to temperature and check the top and bottom hoses. They should both be hot and firrm once the thermostat opens meaning the circulation loop is operating properly. If the top is hot and firm and the bottom is cold/soft or collapsed then the thermostat isn't opening.

If the thermostat is operating properly then you ned to look for some other obstruction or cause for coolant loss. Check the head/intake gaskets, hose connections, hoses, over flow tank, radiator fins, radiator side tanks etc..

Good luck.

Testimonial: "Thank you for your quick response. I will get the head/intake gasket checked."

Ford escape po316

Number 5 ignition coil. Number five should be in the front of the motor in the center on that engine. Usually I wouldn't even bother changing the spark plug with that kind of code.

Codes po308/po316

code po308 refers to cylinder 8 misfire detected===causes--engine mechanical fault---wiring---ignition/fuel system---injector--ECT/MAF sensors--ECM
code po316 refers to misfire detected on start up --first 1000rpm.===causes engine mechanical fault--wiring--ignition /l system--injector
For this I would be inclined to run a fuel system cleaner first to see f the injectors come good . Check all the wiring connections are clean and tight.

2003 ford escape. 75,000 miles on it. Sputters

What engine do you have?
I have a 2002 Escape with 3.0 V6. It sounds like the ignition is getting damp and the engine is misfiring. If the CEL is flashing, you really shouldn't be driving it. Check the owners manual, but you could damage the engine.
Anyway, go to an Autozone or other parts store. Many will scan your engine for the DTC code for free. This code will give you a clue.
My code was for a for a cylinder misfire. I was close to 100,000 miles, so I replaced the plugs first, then the one coil. It was the coil.

Can't read misfire codes

The code P0300 is a random misfire code which means any cylinder and the code P0316 means that there is a misfire code set within the first 1000 revolutions of the engine. Good luck with this problem.
