Felt funny. Have had the 2011 truck since Dec. of 2010. 180,000 kms or so. Dad was talking about spark plugs and I thought, hey I haven't changed the spark plugs and so I phoned the dealer. Then he told me there are no spark plugs in the 6.7. Felt a little like Forrest Gump. lol

No spark plugs in any diesel, never mind the 6.7... Combustion by compression...

You didn't tell them your name did you? That way they'll never know it was you next time you're onsite!

I used to have a window decal that read "real trucks don't have Spark Plugs. You wouldn't believe how many guys came up and asked what I was talking about.
