Change em now!, Get the Lisle tool, and have it handy. I had 59000 on my 06, Broke 5, was able to get the tool on July 3, called Oreilly autoparts 7:15 am, had it by noon. toughest one was driver side rear, no room to turn the wrench, add to use an air rachet to start the tap to remove. Lisle is a lifesaver!

It works!! I had 34k on my '06 and decided to change them. I run it intermittently in my gas and put some in my last oil change and the plugs had hardly any carbon on them and all of them came right out.

Do not hesitate to use it!!

I generally put in 16 oz. in a full tank every fourth or fifth tank. You can also take out one quart of oil and replace it with one quart of Marvel Mystery Oil.

No *****. Is it made by Pampers? Why not use a major name brand plug? Any reason?

Flash, If your truck is not supercharged the 7989 Champion plug is a one piece plug that works well in the 5.4-3V engines.

I think the champion plugs work at least as well as the motorcraft plug....i've seen no difference in performance....and its been close to 25000 miles....

You do know the brisk plugs are colder plugs right???
