Its a common problem on 99-02 Lightnings, I hope your truck is still under warranty, otherwise its going to be expensive to repair.

Sorry to hear it. I hope your truck is stock. If not, I hope it's at a mod friendly dealer.

If so, which one?

Best of luck.

Dan

If you bought the truck a month ago.......and it blew a plug last week........

I certainly hope the dealer would be taking care of you. I would expect some sort of transportation from them also!
Buying from a dealer is more expensive than a private party, but its reasons like this, that it should be worth it.
I deal with All American in Hackensack NJ, and they have allways been very stand up with me.
I think, thats all I better say about that......hehe

The dealer is oasis ford on rt18 in old bridge. I have a cat back exhaust and they didnt say anything about it or gave me any problems they were just like were goin to have to replace the head and it will take about a week and a half. So im hoping it will be done this week i miss my truck lol. As for them giving me a car i just turned 19 last week so the car would have to be in my parents name so if i need a car i can just take my mom's.
