Truck Fixed!

3 plugs with cracked porcelain and 2 bad cop's. Replaced the cop boots as well while it was torn apart and a fuel system flush/cleaning. Running like a raped ape now

Sounds like the combination of weather and engine heat may have cause them to develop cracks.

Our new Ford COP’s, the Sultans of Spark(S.O.S.), have
been designed with both durability and performance in mind.
Please see them at:

Quality was the main feature we stressed when we went to the
drawing board on these coils.
