Noob to this site, and the explorer somewhat

[August_explorer]

Hi all names aaron. Im from the tri-cities in michigan, and I have a problem...

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find a detailed how-to on changing the spark plugs in a 97 explorer with the 5.0?

Being this is my first time doing it on this vehicle I and the fact it isnt mine I would like accurate information..

On top of all that what might be the torque specs. for the new plugs when I get them installed as well?

Welcome to this forum! Make the plugs snug, but not super tight. I don't think anybody uses a torque wrench on them. Use anti seize compound on the threads, and tune up grease in the cables.
