'07 Plug replacement

[Timo2824]

I dont know the past repair history on mine, I only got it 4 months ago, and I am going through checking all possible problems.

Take one out and see if the two metal sections are welded. If so just remove them like any old sparkplug.

If they have been replaced already, you don't have to worry about them coming apart. The factory plugs were crimped, the new replacement ones are welded. I wouldn't think there are many out there that have the factory plugs left, my 07 explorer started misfiring under load at 67,000 miles way back in 2013.

Anyone have a picture of a crimped plug, not sure if my plugs had ever been changed on my '07. The hex part of sleeve slipped off the porcelain center on removal.
