5.4 triton coil retention screw
Hello,
Anyone ever had an issue with the coil retention screw being stripped out? I inherited this problem with the truck.Of course it is cyl # 4, the tuffest to get at. I was able to get the insert out of the head. Seems rust on the screw is the culprit. A little never sieze would have been good here! The stealership wants 40 bucks for the insert, proceeded to tell me you need a special tool to install @ a grand! Well I was thinking of high temp epoxy or similar. any thoughts or experience? SCM
