Will/does ford provide any reimbursement for the extra labor costs involved for these nasty plugs?
This is clearly a very bad design. Any shadetree mechanic should be able to replace these. I took my truck to a professional because of all the horror stories that I have read here in the forums. Wow! Am I glad that I didn't do the job.
Is there a petition going? Something?
Yes, in fact ford owns up to all the **** poor engine design flaws from recent years. They even replace the EGR systems in the 6.0 powerstroke.....lol... no.
you are on your own. just keep up w/ the TSB's for the techs and use the updated style plugs and thats about all you can do.
