I now understand why I was able to acquire my T-bird for cheap. The previous owner must of needed this done, and didn't want to spend money. It was done when I acquired the car and now I can confirm what the shavings were. Sic:)!
I have a 2000 f150 5.4 #3 And #4 spark plugs are rounded completely from previous owner and are stuck in the head I now have the head off how can I get them out. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks
nice video, well done
Awesome! thank you!
I have a 2005 Ford F-150 that blew a spark plug. 4.6 engine. The kit you show is for years 1996 to 2003. Is there a different kit for 2005 years to use? Thank you for your help.
Just a quick warning about using any borescope for internal engine inspection. If you want to use a tool such as an angled mirror for looking at the valves, make absolutely certain that the tool is magnetic! Don't ask me how I know….
What's the difference between the 2v & 3v kits? Varying well diameter?
Got the Cal-Van kit for the 2v 4.6. However, it states it can only be used up to model year 2003. Will i have any issues using this kit on a 2008 Crown Victoria P-71? Thanks for all of the time and effort and helpful information you put into your videos.
FordTechMakuloco do you have a video performing this procedure? Or anything close to it for a 06 explorer 4.0???
Hi. Great videos for Ford people! I have a 2002 Mustang GT Auto. 120k miles. I have had one of the spark plugs blowout. I had it repaired. Is there any way to prevent this from happening to any of the other spark plugs? Thanks!
Dorman makes a little kit for like $30 that uses an insert and a newer long plug. It works surprisingly well. It's a good option for diy and you can get it at any parts store. It's literally a two step process. Super easy.
Where are you located
Will this last kit you used work on a DOHC 4.6? I have a mach 1 that blew a coil pack and damaged the spark plug threads along with it and would like fix it asap.
did you work out of a craftsman box for your entire tenure as a tech at ford?
Great Video! I'm about to buy a 97 4.6 f150 and these spark plugs are the biggest thing i'm worried about!
