Yea once the plug ports are screwed up, they don't heal on their own or over time.

I think we would be surprised how many designs/inventions we have today are a direct result from someone on crack, - if we new lol.

2001, F-150 Lariat. 233 K. Oil changes every 5 K; transfer case and tranny by book. Starting to get a little valve noise. Spent more on A/C (compressor and evaporator) than on rest of truck so far.
