Spark plug wires ???

I thought about changing the spark plug wire set in my F250SD V10, but when I had a closer look -- there are any as such.
Is there any maintenance to do here, apart from new plugs ?

No plug wires, each plug has an ignition coil on top. Just a trigger wire going to each.

Each plug having a coil is nothing new, that's the way Henry did it in 1917.

Read other posts about replacing the plugs.

You can change the boots on the coils for the same reason as wires because they
will eventually arc out,and many people replace the whole coil when this is not needed.
You can buy the boots,at the dealer or any good parts store for about $5.00 ea.

carefully read the other posts on changing spark plugs buy a torqe wrench and use it.
improper torqed plugs = plug blow out or striped head. do a search of spark plugs it pertains to all mod motors
