when did 2v triton plug thread count change?
was it in 01 or 02? I know in 02 trucks had the new clear marker lights on the front and also new interior with digital odometer
I'm looking at buying a cheap run around hoopty
whats yours guys preferred method on fixing blown out spark plugs? is it still the timesert kit? I just saw a video on youtube where the guy used this Dorman/Spark Plug Thread Repair Kit (42025) | 2001 Ford F250 Super Duty P/U 4WD 8 Cylinders L 5.4L EFI | AutoZone.com

Well I haven't found my new to me beat around truck yet, I have not been searching to aggressive though, before I had my search narrowed to only a 5.4 but now I am considering a 6.8
I was wondering.. does anyone have experience on a v10 with either the passenger or driver rear most spark plugs blowing out and being able to fit the timesert tools back there to fix it?

they changed the thread count due to blow outs. If I recall the old ones had like 5 threads, Blow out was a real issue.
after the change not so much, With this being said. a few will chime in and say I'm Crazy. But while doing a tune up/ of anything. you need a torque wrench,
I know things have gotten so far off course these days. it's impossible to get a person to do there JOB. and forget trying to get them to do it RIGHT.
But u have to do it your self.
It's JUST NO AN ISSUE anymore.
Best of luck to you.
the #5 is difficult. but do-able with most tools in house
