Spark Plugs?
I've been playing this game for a couple of days now and I'm not new to the engine game, but this one really has me stumped. I can't locate the plugs on the '01 Super Crew I just bought my wife. Where are the spark plugs on this critter?

Its a coil on plug design so following spark plug wires wont help. Mostly cause there arent any. They are right on top of the heads. you'll see a little black round cylinder with a screw holding it on. they are right under the fuel injection rails. Take the screw out and pull the coil pack off. And you still cant see the plugs cause they are in the depths of the engine. but if u get a wrench down there, u can get em. thats where they are...have fun changing the back passenger one.

Trailrider! you got close 100,000 miles yet,its not a tune up item until then but you can change them. Becareful guys have been striping the threads out in the aluminum heads. also if you find any loose let your dealer know if your still under warranty!make sure you torque them back in correctly.
With some swivel extensions and sockets that pass one can be had pretty easy!

Heck I guess its easier on my 99 superduty, becouse my rear passenger side plug I just used strait extensions all the way up till I got my socket wrench on, and piece of cake. Though it really took me 2 days to figure that out. Having to relocate here and there fuel line and other wires.

Im not sure id wait until it has 100,000 miles before i changed them. Mine were completely burnt out at 50k of highway miles. Id like to see what they would look like with one driven city miles.
