Do they make a plug for the 5.4 3v?

Just could be! If they make one, it would be a new item, I think.

Bosch doesn't make any plugs for the 5.4 3V.

Not sure why you would want to put a Botch... er I mean Bosch plug in anything. Do you own stock in the company??? That's about the only reason I can think of.

P.S. Do you realize the notorious "Fail" injectors that come on your '05 that have failed and caused so many engines to need replacement because of "hydrolocking" were nade by "Botch" ... er Bosch?

Bosch make lots of good parts, they just cant make a plug for the modular engine. They make millions of injectors and they make the OEM 02 sensors its said.. Plus countless other parts in your engine compartment.. The 05's got a bad batch and Bosch is probably paying a big price for that. The extended warranty coverage Ford gave on them is probably all on Bosch...

Don't totally condemn Bosch plugs yet in a modular - these are the new Iridiums he's talking about, and read the forum announcements!

Bosch shouldn't be making spark plugs at all, especially for Fords. Use then at your peril.
