4.6 in E150??
Just curious if the 4.6 in the 2012 E line vans is the same at the 3V 5.4? I steer clear of the 3V engine because of the timing chain issues and spark plug removal problems among other things. Does the 4.6 engine share the same block and plugs as the 5.4?

No 3 valve engines ever in the E vans. The 2 valve engines have had the problem with spitting out spark plugs but by 2012 they had some more threads for the spark plugs. It's a fine engine that has gone hundreds of thousands of miles in cop cars, taxis, Town Car limos, and trucks/vans. I drove mine for 130k miles in an '02 E150 and sold it to a friend who is at 160k or something.
