RE: P0356 code
hmm, i'd pull your spark plug covers on the valve covers and check all you're Ignition COPs. Make sure they are all making solid connection on the spark plugs. On my old mach i pushed one on and it didnt go all the way onto the plug, and ran rough like you describe. Since it is saying Ignition coil F that may denotethe problem is on your #6 cylinder- make sure to check that one really well.

I would start with the COP's actually start with cylinder 6. code 351 Thur 362 the coil codes and I believe 356 is Cylinder 6. Make sure they are all good and tight and the bolts are tight

Cylinder #6 should he the second from the front on the driver side.
4 8
3 7
2 6
1 5
Thats how it is on GTs at least- im guessing it should be the same for machs.
