WOOOOHOOOO!!! I finally did it folks. I changed all of the plugs and coil packs. I was terrified of doing it myself but a buddy of mine who knows how to change out the high thread plugs on the 4.6 helped me out. HOLY HELL it is once again love at the turn of a key. I almost forgot what it was like to have 292hp. Yea, yea it is at the crank but come on give a guy a break! I knew there was a reason I bought a FORD!!:exp: I have heard good and bad stories here some of which are my own. I look forward to my new regained power and with out a doubt after a full fuel system flush, new plugs and new coil packs I will be getting better mileage. Hey even if I get 1 mpg better you can bet your socks I'll throw a party. I hear guys on here getting crazy high numbers in their 4.6l's and well for me it has averaged low low low. I am so excited I had to contain myself for fear of burning through all 22.5 gallons in a test drive.
plugs $21.00 x 8 = $168.00
coil packs $92.00 x 8 = 736.00
$168.00 + $736.00 - 15% (Ford gave me a discount for buying all the plugs and coil packs at once) is a grand total of $768.40 Oh and to top it off and add sprinkles to that cake, there was no labor cost except for a project well done beer celebration between the two of us.
