Oil leak from valve lifter cover gasket. Leak detected Jan 2004. Gasket backordered (according to hood river Ford dealer) to over 8000 vehicles. My vehicle released from dealer without repair. February returned with rough running and engine light. Oil had leaked onto solinoid shorting out several with assocaited boots. These parts were also backorder to the same number as gaskets. Vehicle sat at dealer for over a month without loaner or parts.
