spark plug shot out of motor

Lol. Thanks changed mine last month for the first time. I drive about 3000 miles a month for work, so ill add that to my regular maintainence checks.

I have a 2001 XLT 5.4L I am curious, does using the swivel adapters and a bunch of extensions like I had to do just to get the plugs in and out render the torque wrench reading pretty inaccurate?

Those two back plugs were a serious challenge. Gid knows how you guus/girls with the breaking plug year Expeditions do it.

Use this site to calculate what the torque value should be at with all the extensions added.

yes, but using a swivel completely throws out the torque setting. i dont have a calculation, but angles add resistance
