Champion vs. Motorcraft

[djrainer]

Has anyone use the Champion replacement plug in the 5.4L 3V?

I put them in my 2007 about a year ago and have had no problems

The only issues I have heard from using the Motorcraft plugs is the breakage issue when removing them. While most have seen no problems with using Champion, E3, Bosch, etc, these are the ones you see having intermittant problems with rough idle/misfire due to bad plugs. I have always heard using OEM plugs is your best bet, and I just bought a set to install this weekend. Wish me luck!!

Good luck indeed. If you get the chance and have the space I always like to soak the plugs overnight with PB Blaster...just a little extra help
