IIRC, we're not supposed to use b+4's in our cars. However I could be wrong, I am only a lowly zetec'er. another suggestion.. you mentioned 4500rpms, and holding back.. sounds like it could be plugged cats or closed secondaries.

How much is that to fix.If that was it would the check engine light come on.Also would it be covered under an extended warranty.

You can check IRMC easily. CAr in neutral, E-Brake on, rev engine (by hand, under hood), you can see the imrc lever on the rod sticking out of the head move. No Move, NO good.
It's located under the Throttle body area..

Bosch Platinum +4s are fine in my Duratec.
I replaced the wires with Ford MotorSport wires at the same time I replaced the plugs.
I have no complaints about them.

I tried what you said and it moves when the rpm's get high is that normal or is it suppose to open as soon as I begin to rev the engine?
