In a V6 motor.. yeah, it happens. as long as she's running smoothly you have nothing to really worry about. just make sure you gapped your new ones (they come pre gapped but often get bumped around in shipping.)

EricM9104 Posted April 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 With new ones gapped correctly I believe, ran shittier (misfiring idle) than when I had these Motorcraft plugs in. Plugs I put in were NGK V-Power's. How would I clean these off to test and rule out my spark plugs causing my issue? Ran fine with Motorcraft plugs, lol.

Cool, thanks. Yes one at a time, checked the firing order a bajillion times to just to double check.
