our trucks come with motorcraft stock, Ive heard that autolite and motorcraft are basically the same thing. If you want to play it safe just get motorcraft ones.
THEN AGAIN...i have a 3.0, i don't know whats exactly recommended for a 4.0 |
bump. What is the best spark plug for the 4.0l SOHC? I was thinking autolite double plat., but does anybody have a part # or something. I dont want to get the wrong plug.
|
if you don't like what the parts store gives you (most likely champions) just ask them if they have the motorcraft plugs for your truck. or go right to ford.
|
I just went to Ford and got the factory platinums.
|
Motorcraft plats
|
motorcraft plugs for sure. dont waste your money on bosch.
|
I'll be installing the NGK V-Power TR55 3951 tomorrow so hopefully they work good for me
|
Replaced mine at 50k with Autolite Double Platinums......... and just a word of advice, have the parts store cross reference vs. the part number in the manual........ Autozone showed they didnt stock the plugs I needed until I gave them the actual part number..... crazy computers.....
|
ill go to Ford dealership this weekend and probably pick some up.
|
I used Autolite Iridium plugs

both
idle is very smooth now acceleration is kick ass engine fires after the 2nd crank ( usually took 5 or more with the factory iridium plugs ) my fuel ecomony is still rising |
i use Bosch 4"s and my truck fires right up no problem 4,0 ohv 1998 162k miles
|
so champions are the way to go? Cause I am going to change mine this weekend and I have a 4.0 and was thinking about going with ngk v power plugs but now I read this
|
No, I never run champion in my vehicles. Champions are stuck to my lawnmowers. Autolite/Motorcraft is the way to go
