LINK Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) Let me guess, a spark plug broke off, or one blew out?If you have a significant loss of power, and you hear a whistling noise, similar too the sound an aftermarket cold air intake makes, you probably have a spark plug loose.Just a guess, I am not a Ford Tech...

Steve Butters Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 those 3v are not known for blowing plugs out....youre thinking of the 2v.....early 3v had a problem with plugs breaking off while changing them, but not just breaking for no reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcat6183 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Been there as well and actually dealing with it right now with my dads truck too.Feel free to PM me the same PM and I will let you know what I know. I had issues with my F150, and now my dads is having some different ones. I'm no Ford Tech just a shady tree mechanic that loves Ford's so fixing them etc. is in my blood line too. Probably not like Jporter, I believe he does this for a living, but yeah, anything on the 5.4 and the 6.0 I should have some info on. Shoot me the same PM you sent him.PS my uncle was the engineer that signed off on not using the high temp anti-sieze on the spark plugs at Ford to cut costs. Not one of them, THE ONE. I see him often and still remind him about my full head job I had to have due to his decision, then he laughs. But he's a true Ford engineer, and actually emailing me about getting our Xplan set up today for our new ride, so I can email him back.
