An amazing video from the point of view that many folks might think a plug change is so fundamental that they have nothing to learn. However, a 3.5 Ecoboost has its own potential gotchas! And this video absolutely addresses every single one of them! Not to mention the excellent lighting and clear camera views.

Great video as always, Brian! For those wondering about the necessity of the grease on the boots: an absolute must with the amount of mileage between changes. My dealer did my first plug change (2012 F-150 3.5L eco, 260,00km) and used no grease. I did the next change and the boots stuck to the plugs and broke off on 4 of 6 plugs. Let me tell you how hard it is to get those broken boots off of seated plugs. Save the headache, use the grease! I wish Brian's methods were standard dealer practice.

Another great video to be used with my new 3.5L F150. I too used to have a spark plug torque feel back in the pre emissions days but no more, especially these new engines. These videos are especially helpful since my past two trucks have been a 3V V10 with the fragile OE two piece plugs and a 6.7 diesel that about all I could do was note that there probably was an engine under all that "stuff". One thing I learned with the V10 is that you barely loosen the plugs, put a tiny bit of Motorcraft carb cleaner down the tube to loosen carbon, wiggle the plug back and forth 2-3 times with the socket to stop the squeal then use a wee dab of nickel based anti seize on the ten new ONE piece plug threads. Electrolytic grease has been a no brainer on plug boots even with a distributor ignition for years.

Great video and it was exactly what I needed. I was changing the plugs on a 2018 F150/3.5L Ecoboost. The pump plug on the passenger side would not come loose for love nor money and I was afraid of destroying it if I got any rougher. As I looked at thought it became apparent that like the PCV connection on the other side, the pump connection did not interfere with removing the coil or plug. I started out using a torque wrench but there was no way mine would fit in the space above rear plugs and still provide any levarage/movement. So I checked by feel plus torque wrench on the 2nd plug and went by feel for all the remainder. My biggest issue was reaching the rear plugs without putting any weight on the front-end plastic, but I did manage and did not have to remove any of air intake piping either. Thanks again for the great video. As an aside, I suspect supply might be be reason for hte change in sparkplugs to a flat/gasket base. Every other vehicle I've had (non ford) used flat base plugs w/gasket. If Ford and the Ecoboost engine was the only remaining market, it would be a relatively small niche vs. all the rest of the manufacturers combined. If it also cut a step out of the manufacturing process for the heads then it s a win-win change. The downside is that service of the plugs will require a step to insure that the old gasket is retrieved/removed before installing the new plugs.

Ive been using antiseize on plugs as well. Its like Ford engineers expect cars to be driven in a vacuum lol. I do add a few ftlbs to the indicated value though, just to compensate for the added lubricity on the threads. The modulars had the issue of plugs being grenaded out, while others would get so stuck they would ruin the heads. Its why on my Vic, I remove the plugs every 50k miles, and probably decreasing that number with age, as its not a daily driver anymore. EDIT: I made a mistake here, that I want to leave up to show just how easy a mistake can be made. The replies under will clarify

There is absolutely no reason to ever cross thread anything. I always start everything by hand and run the bolt/nut far enough that there is no way to cross thread it. Oil pan drain plugs are a pet peeve of mine. If you can't run it all the way in by hand, stop and figure out why. And don't get me started on the morons who think they need to tighten drain plugs until they damn near strip. The only real pressure on an oil drain plug is the weight of the oil because the pan just holds the oil. Tighten it so I won't fall out and that's it. Also, I have no idea why someone would bitch about blowing compressed air into a combustion chamber other than to just hear themselves bitch about something. It's not like you can reach pressures higher than that of what it is on a compression stroke. What ill effect exactly do they think will happen? Thanks for another great video.

And the dealer needed to tell me these are not like the old cars, individual coils, boots, plugs, etc.... right. This looks much easier. Ever try to pull a spark plug wire off a plug with little access and has been on the plug for years!!! I did gringe some when you blew air into the cyclinder. Great video thanks.

Hey guys .. I gotta 2013 fusion 1.6 ecoboost.. engine is pretty much gone. Was wondering if the fiesta none turbo 1.6 would work on the fusion. I would very much appreciate it.

My problem was I didn’t push the coil far enough down on back cylinders. I had to climb up even more on the engine and push. If you are having a hard time screwing the nut back into the coil, you didn’t push it down far enough. 😅

Great video. Subscribed. I've read that Ford doesn't recommend anti-sieze. I defer to your experience and will use the torque wrench.

Always use a small amount as shown. The plugs are plated now so they will tell you it is not required.

Great video, my only concern is the lubricant on the threads, this could allow for over torque. All torques are specified with dry threads for that reason.

It won't affect anything no matter what forum warned you about this. Arnold Schwarzenegger could tighten these, and they still would not pull the threads.

isn't it a great feeling when you get enough experience to know where the human torque arm can get the job done correctly LOL

Isn't it a great feeling when you get enough experience to know that ANY lubricant applied to threads will INCREASE clamping load of a given torque spec by 30%?? All you boys who put anti-seize on spark plugs need to drastically (roughly 30%) DECRASE your tightening torque or risk stripping the threads on the head.

I know this video was made a year ago, but wanted to thank you for taking the time, very in depth video couldn’t ask for a better tutorial. Thank you greatly. Do you recommend disconnecting battery?

Nice video!! I have a Flex that has a v-6 in it but my truck has a 6.2. How hard are they to change?? just was wondering!! Really enjoy your channel, learned a lot from it!! Thanks!!

@dieselford9184 Жыл бұрын
The 6.2 won’t be bad, the back cylinder on each side may be tucked against the firewall. The Flex might be a little harder seeing as it’s a transverse mounted engine.

I had a district manager at a independent chain shop that kept telling me how professional he was I was doing a break job and he attempted to put the wheel back on one side for me putting the lug nuts directly in the socket and running them in with the impact and broke 2 studs real professional pissed me off and of course they were waiting so I had to tear it all apart to replace the studs
