Lots of Ford owners carry that kit with them and do it on the side of the road. After a couple, it shouldn't take much more than 20 minutes. You might want to carry a couple of coils with you too!

Absolute BS..

Just because you are a "Dodge Guy" it doesn't give YOU the right to spout of this kind of GARBAGE..

Did you notice what he drives? LOL

Here is a little history for you. I worked at Doehler-Jarvis and we did the RD work on their at the time new alum heads. Our Engineering Department told Ford they should add steel thread inserts to the spark plug openings. Their response was the inserts were not needed and if there was a failure it would happen well outside the warranty period. Gotta love those bean counters!

BTW the cost of adding the system to the casting process was about $180,000 per die, the cost of the insert itself was $0.03 each or $0.12 per head! How much does it cost to fix Ford's inept engineering?

Again you have to love the Bean Counters and it's the same at EVERY company no mater the product!

You beat me to it Dodgeboy. I guess the user name was enough to make him not even look at the picture and see the big RED ford....

I drove fords for years (w/5.4 & v10s) and replaced them as they puked out plugs. :) As a rule it was 2-4 years. I bought a Ram the last time (4 1/2 years ago) and haven't lost a plug yet - it's a diesel. :)
