    Default 5.4 Coil Packs/Plugs

    I'd love to meet the Ford engineer that designed this system so I can kick that stupid son of a bitch square in the nut sack.

    Didn't break one off. Found some info about running Sea Foam in the tank and warming up the engine before trying to pull em. Used Kroil from the top once I got the coil off. Worst part was having to use fifty-leven extensions and universals to get to 3, 7, & 8. Ran out of daylight so #4 is on hold for now and I'm really dreading getting back to it.

    Yeah yeah. Got any pointers for that #4? Do you unbolt that power box from the firewall for extra room or just fight with the wires/hoses? This is a 98 Navigator. Not sure of the layout difference between it and the F-150/250.

    #4 is the bestest, you've probably seen enough videos about what happens if you break it off.........

    I've got 290,000 on my '00 Expedition with the wonderful 5.4 and she's still limping along.
    Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.

    I’ve done it in a 98 f150 5.4 with just some elbow grease and wobble extensions. It’s a pain but you can get them all like this.
