How long do we need to stay tuned? I'm rapidly approaching a plug change in the next 3-6 months. Will anything be done by then? Thanks

Good to know that Ford is going to do something other than making a tool and a special plug removal process. Thanks for the info!

Maybe you should ask the dealer techs on here if their FSE's have helped with plug removal.

You callin me a tool? I'm bout to smack the taste outya mouth

Sweet so hopefully by the time I change my plugs there will be something better that Ford has come up with, Keeping my fingers crossed it happens before my warranty is out in about 5,000 miles.
