Why, in the name of Jesus...
would Ford put some massive jumble of heater hoses and T-fittings directly over the rear 2 spark plugs on the passenger side?? I mean, it's not that big of a deal since spark plugs aren't maintenance items... oh, wait... they are maintenance items.
As you may have guessed, I got to change the plugs on my GF's sister's '99 Expedition the other night; I swear to God, if it was up to me the engineers would have to perform some of the more common tasks in maintenance/upkeep, just to see the impact of their work. Buncha boneheads.
Grrrrr.

my Dad was machinist with a couple of years mechanical engineering training:
his favorite engineer saying: " any ******* with a pencil can put anything down on paper- the real challenge is -CAN IT BE MADE" . his saying is as timely today as it was 45 years ago

As for other crummy spark plug jobs I have done, I had an '01 Camaro, and we all know how challenging those were to swap plugs in... but the one that takes the cake is another of Uncle Henry's rides... the Thunderbird SC.
That really was a great car to drive, but an absolute maintenance nightmare...
