4.6 spark plug change - thought it'd be worst

About 2 hours total. I removed the CAI and a couple of other things. No biggie. I was surprised at how good the old plugs looked after 75K miles. This was the worst looking of them (the one on the right obviously - for you smarta$$e$ lol)

Nice! I thought it would be a difficult job when I swapped out mine with Pulstar's, but wasn't that bad! I had one plug that looked absolutely terrible, had white crap all on it.

Glad the change went smooth for you. Did you notice an improvement after plug change?

Who put that Chebby engine in your Ford? I'd get that out of there before it infects the rest of the truck and you have to scrap the whole thing.
