Idle on my 4.6 2007 explorer is shakey, really do think it’s the coil pack but others say it can be the injectors or spark plugs.( if anyone has fixed that let me know)

I noticed the spark plug threads were not the same length. Is this still ok to use? It won't hit the piston?

tony m says:

really good video though

Blue_Country_Boy says:

Good video, but this does NOT work for 1997, and 1998. 97, and 98 use wires, and the coil pack with 4 on 1.

James Mclean says:

Everybody is scared to show how to do the back plugs

Edward Clancy says:

13 ft pounds is not enough , do 22 to 25. 3/8 ratchet 1/4 turn after snug..

I have a 2009 F-150 4.6L. I'm struggling to get #8 Spark Plug out. I'm not sure what is is called, but it seems like the Fuel Piping coming above #8 Spark Plug, makes it almost impossible to get the socket in straight to be able to loosen and remove the spark plug. How did you get #8 Spark Plug out? Thanks!!

Islandvoyager says:

Very good video. Got a misfire in cylinder #8. Of course the hardest one to get to. I am changing all the plugs and coils. Your video was most helpful. Thanks!

Stinky Pinky says:

Great video. Wish you would have changed the coil packs and plugs closet to the firewall, cause there a pain in the ASS!! LOL

Abel Pedroza says:

Great explanation. Thank you.

Should could be changed always? Or only when needed
