got some stuff in the mail..

Well finally got my plugs and wires in the mail today from summit. only took bout 4 days, which is really good for being in germany.. hopefully i will get to do it tomorrow, i cant wait to see the difference in the truck.. right now, its not running so good. .hopefully this will fix the problem..

EDIT_ they are both motorcraft..

also, any hints or tips to make the job easier, i am not looking foward to this as i have enough trouble getting into the engine bay as it is.. may have to invest in a step stool lol

maybe a little lol, its not as bad on the OHV, but it makes it a bit easier to go through the wheel well. since you got motorcraft the wires should be numbered like the stockers ( if there still on there) i just did one wire at a time so i didnt mix em up, its easy to do sometimes.

^ x2
the plugs are slanted towards the back of the truck, a socket wrench with a small extension is the best bet for getting at em, and basically laying on top of the engine !
