Hello everybody.I will be attempting my first plug change on my 1999 Rexhall Rexair Motorhome soon.It is built on a Ford chassis and has the 6.8l v10 triton Ford .I have read all the threads on this forum concerning Triton plug change and have gathered a lot of good info.This is a great forum and the info will be real handy.Will let you know how I make out.It has 129,000 kilometers on it with original plugs.

 

Keep us posted bigsidster, I have a 99 Super Duty V-10 with 85000 miles and mine haven't been changed either....I looked at the job and just shut the hood for now. lol

 

Good evening all.Just came in from a spark plugb change on my 1999 Rexhall Rexair Motorhome with the 6.8L v10 triton Ford.The complete job took me 3 hours from start to finish because I did a lot of prep work first that I picked up from this site.The most time consuming job was cleaning the work area with an air gun,removing throttle body housing,and tieing heater hoses up out of the way.I then removed all the COPS and unplugged all the fuel jets.Sprayed penetrating oil into each cylinder hole to soften up plugs.Waited 20 min and began removing plugs.The bank of plugs on the driver side seemed to be seated tighter than the passenger side.The plugs second and third fromm the back of the motor on the passenger side had almost no torque on them.I really used the air gun a lot before ,during and after each plug removal.Put all 10 plugs in with a .052 in gap.The plugs I removed were gapped between .058 and .60in.from wear.They were still pretty clean after 129,000 km.Re assembled the rest of the parts and fired it up.Runs like a charm.Well worth the time and effort.I used anti sieze and torqued to 20 ft pounds.
Greased front end and winterized the motorhome also.Now just fuel filter replacement (need to borrow a tool).
