How to Replace Spark Plugs and Coils Ford F-250 F-350 F-450 Excursion V10 Super Duty 1999 - 2004

[@alexyu6928]

I have the 2003 Ford Excursion with Triton V10 and I so wanted to do a spark plug change job myself but a look at the last few plugs that were buried so deep in the engine bay I chickened out. After hearing so many horror stories that these Ford spark plugs break so easily I am not about to put myself in deep shit trouble. A man got to know his limitation and for this one I think I am willing a write a big fat check for someone to do it. But sir you did great.

Thanks for getting right to work instead of plugging everything like everyone else. This helped a lot!

I’m glad you found this video helpful.

I agree!!

[@paulanderson388]

It is a good idea to blow out the spark plug well with compresses air after removing the coil and before loosening/removing the plugs to keep dirt and crap from falling into the cylinders.

Thank you for making this video. My 2000 V10 with 180k miles tells me it has a misfire on 4 and 7. 7 was super easy to change but 4 is going to be a bear! I hope I remember all my magic words 🤬😅

[@billmcroberts6566]

Good job. As difficult as the V10 is, the 5.4L is much more difficult. Not bad for a “rookie”. Keep at it!

It's the exact same motor with 2 less cylinders 😂😂

[@RookieRepairs]

Thank you for your help @Same Guy

[@JoseLopez-ts9sj]

Thank you for the video Sir. I'm doing the same thing to my 2002 Excursion. Thanks 👍🏼👏🏼

[@ninorcsinned3465]

Jose, how did the spark plug replacement go on your excursion? How.many miles are on it?

[@raylarie]

You are real world. Thanks. I was able to gain more from your shit then those follow protocol girls.

[@Joelo7734]

I told Jose saca la pipa an he said he couldn’t find it so we’re using this 😂

[@RookieRepairs]

😂😅 Having the right tools or something that works is very helpful. Thank you for your support.

[@SemperShock]

Hey Brother! I appreciate your video. It’s my turn to replace my 9th & 10th coil caps and I should just replace those spark ⚡️ plugs as well. So your video helps me out a lot to get familiar with what I am going to need as in tools and how tight the 9th & 10th cylinders are at. By any chance have you replaced your valve cover for this truck in the video?? That is probably my next project on my 02 Lifted Ford Excursion!! Thank you

[@RookieRepairs]

You should definitely replace all spark plugs. Unfortunately, I have not replace my valve cover- my has no leaks. Nice car by the way!!!

[@Joelo7734]

Good video thanks for sharing

[@RookieRepairs]

I'm glad you found this video helpful... Thank you for your support.

[@choppercity8312]

Good Dude 👍🏼

[@samuelranson7505]

Take compressed air and blow the hole out before you remove the plug, that way your not knocking dirt and debris down into the heads

[@RookieRepairs]

You are absolutely right... that’s the best way to get it done... I had to go back and blow out the dirt/ dust out because I didn’t have a compressor at the time so I purchased a small one that was able to get it done (my big compressor was not available)... thank you for your comment and for your support. Love this truck ...

[@dnegel9546]

I love 3cyl cars. 😅

[@RookieRepairs]

Or 4 cylinder cars... 🤫😅

[@nabielsuleiman7039]

You never used any lubed any WD-40 to loosen them up or anything that's why they were hard to take out also one friend back in you should use some never sees so they would go and smoother and you won't strip out the threads and the torque setting is around 22 pounds foot pounds follow your manual instructions from Ford it helps a lot

[@RookieRepairs]

I normally have the car on for 5 mins. and that helps to loosen the spark plugs... Thank you for your comment.

[@jeremydavis4809]

Clean your intake with intake cleaner to get all that carbon of those plates

[@RookieRepairs]

Thank you for your comment. I just used air compressor to blow it out but that should definitely help out cleaning all the carbon out.

[@jeremydavis4809]

@@RookieRepairs yeah. They also use a throttle intake cleaner to clean those plates. If you wanted to go even further, you can take off the throttle assembly and clean behind the plates. It helps with your idle and throttle response. Its usually a red can at autozone

[@nabielsuleiman7039]

Also you should have blown out the whole thing cuz there's a lot of dirt and debris on top of the engine

[@RookieRepairs]

You are absolutely right... I had to go back and blow out all the dust/ debris on all cylinders... I didn’t have my compressor with me at the time... this is a must because we don’t know when the previous owner did any maintenance on your “new” car/ truck

[@fxnepilogue]

Why do these seem so much easier than the v8? I swear the 5.4 has them buried 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@bradhess3762]

300 for 8 coil packs OMG 😢

[@luisgongora7907]

This guy obviously doesn't know protocols and procedures of mechanics skills.

[@thecoloradotravelers7212]

Oh, and you do? Mr.Fix it?
