My Ford-150 pick-up started making a small noise for a few days. I went out to start my truck and it no longer was a small noise but one big loud noise. I had my oil and plugs changed on October 15, 2008. Upon raising the hood I found that one of the spark plugs had blown out from where it was suppose to be. The plug looked like it was the old one and that made me think that they had not changed my plugs. The truck was towed to the dealer and he informed me that the plug was one of the new ones but that the head hid blown the plug out. (I hope I am saying this right). The service manager told me that there had been a lot of problems with this happening to the Ford trucks but that no recall had ever been issued. It seams that there is some weak spots due to the metal not being strong enough to hold the plugs in. I have been researching this problems and there are a lot of people complaining about this same situation.
My husband and I were going to work in evergreen CO. When something blew in the front of our truck. We had a immediate strong smell of gas and the truck started to shake and make very loud noises. A garage in evergreen looked at our truck and told us what had happened to it and said not to drive it to far because it could hurt the engine more than it did. We went and bought a coil and spark plug and waited all day for the guy to fix the truck. He said we were lucky he had a tool to fix it because he had the only one in evergreen. He had to rethread the block so that he could put the new plug and new coil on. He also told us other people have had this same problem in evergreen.
