Not an "easy" task due to location but 100% doable.My concern would be the condition of the other welsh plugs. What coolant are you using?Are you engine earth straps connected properly?

Leave it to the professionals. Is this a common problem with the newer generations of Ford's I6? E series yes but I've never heard of a B series or FG having this issue before. Usually something else goes first lol Edited 13/11/13 04:44 AM by _Velocity_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
