run autolite or motorcraft plugs, those are the only ones! All the others are junk.

I liked my JBAs they just finally wore out on me after 80k miles.

I wouldn't say the other plugs were junk, they just aren't the optimal heat range and reach for Ford's 4.0L engines.

Or any Ford engine for that matter. I have changed several plugs on Ford Engines, I personally think they run the best on Autolite or Motorcraft plugs.

Good point Zach!!!

It's amazing how bad Bosch plugs run with Ford's EDIS, but how well they
run in my gas Mercedes! However, after reading how the platinum electrodes
will fall out of the insulator on Bosch, I'm now running NGK platinums in my Mercedes.
