I have used Autolites with good success but most will recommend Motorcraft. Would suggest that you also clean the exhaust ports thru the throttle body would only need two gaskets and some throttle body cleaner to do the job but throttle body needs to be removed to do it proper check youtube for videos on this

i did that to pass inspection egr ect...everything was cleaned pretty good taken apart. plugs made big difference on 99 explorer i got. didnt ask mech./shop what they used,(wifes truck) hehe,but... wanna make good choice on expedition but i think motocraft has to be it.......$5....advanced auto. i bringt my parts with my truck....the explorer,i let them do as they please. owner been on my cars/trucks since freshman year....lol he knows how i am....lol

one thing that is important in changing the plugs is when you install the new plugs torque them to spec

Motorcraft and nothing else. Autolites are built side by side with Motorcraft plugs but for some reason will cause misfires.
