Excellent, clear video and audio. I also have a 2016 F150 5.0 liter V8 with about 82,000 miles on it, mostly from driving back and forth between California and Florida. I'll probably change the plugs soon. Thanks a lot!
Great video. My local mechanic shop price was 450 for my 2016 F150 V8. They said their software said it was a two hour job. Their rate is 140/hour. Spark plugs are 15$/plug. In CT
El mejor video que e visto, a pesar de que no hablo ingles lo ilustraste perfectamente y lo entendi solo mirando, asta lo hiciste que pareciera facil...gracias por eso
Thanks for the video. You explained everything very good. Even showed, what people were asking for in the comments. My question, would be toward of the video. I like the Tread on the tires. What Brand / Style & Size Tires. ( And did you happen to replace any of the spark plug boots etc? )
Nice video .. Unfortunately my plug swap on the 2011 f150 5.0 is not going so smooth ive broken the bolt heads off 5 out of 8 coil bolts but did manage to remove the inserts & re install them with heat. My fear now is that the plugs might be seized, I used a 3/8 ratchet with extention & Swivel 5/8" plug socket with a good amount of muscle & they won't budge ! It's my daily driver and I need to wait till I find the time so I can soak the wells with penetrating fluid for a couple days then try again " Wish Me Luck "
Ah man, I'm sorry to hear that!! Bolts breaking are the worst thing to happen in any project! I'm glad you were able to get most of the inserts out! That's the hardest part. I'd definitely recommend soaking them in PB Blaster or something equivalent. That'll help reduce the risk for breaking the plugs. I'm sure you'll get them out no problem! Good Luck!!! Keep me updated!
I haven't watched the video yet but if you put anti-seize on the spark plugs that is not good because it will change the torque on the spark plug and possibly caused it to come loose
@@facerapi2920 Aluminum heads with steel plugs will cause corrosion issues leading to difficulties in removing plugs, up to and including stripped threads. A little dab about 1/3 of the way down the threads works wonders. Proper torque will not be affected enough to loosen up.
Thank you!! I asked my neighbor, but he didn’t remember what series of muffler it was. Only that it was a magnaflow. I’ll let you know if I can figure it out!
i was told when i change the sprk plugs on my 2011 f-150 with over 120.000 miles on it. that the plugs can be trouble breaking loose even breaking off the block is that true.do you think i should spray some penerating lube on them over night. first.
BTW the trucks plugs have paint on the tips so they are the original plugs & I have 240,000 KM on the truck therefore I've been over due in changing them for a long time , truck runs fine but still the plugs need to be replaced.
Good to know! I didn't know that. Sounds like you got some great life out of those plugs! You'll probably notice a slight performance & MPG increase with the new plugs, I noticed that when I replaced mine! Thanks for the info!

Just hit 75,000 in my 17 f-150 5.0 and it’s been a little shaky at idle. Great job on the video! Very clear and simple! Thanks! 🙏
What about the passenger side How to get that plastic cover off? All the videos show drivers side only

Perfect, using Anti-seize and dielectric grease are signs of a good Tech. Much appreciated.

My truck has a skip do you think I might just need a tune up
Great Video, thanks 😊
Great video! Were you able to figure out the muffler model on your truck?
Thank you!! I asked my neighbor, but he didn’t remember what series of muffler it was. Only that it was a magnaflow. I’ll let you know if I can figure it out!
@@TinkeringWithTtry a 19080, nice deep rumble, my 2018 with 5.0l with that muffler and resonator delete sounds great.

It definitely wouldn’t hurt! Anything to prevent those breaking off would be great!
What gap did you used ? Thanks
I think I gapped them at .051 if I remember correctly!
What exhaust is that? Are there any tight areas on any of the plugs or are is it pretty easy access for all?
I believe it’s a magnaflow! I’ll double check with my neighbor. From what I remember, all 8 plugs were pretty easy to access!
This was good. I just hope I'm able to emulate you.
Thank you for your kind words! And thanks for watching!
Great video!
Thank you!! and thanks for watching!
I can only find 3 on the passenger side
Is the last one hidden or in a different spot
Do you have the 5.0 V8? or the eco-boost? If you have the Eco-boost, there will only be three on each side
Did this and the truck won't even crank. There's a slight clicking noise when I turn the key.
Hmm. Is your battery ok? Sounds like the voltage may have gotten low
@@TinkeringWithT haven't checked it, was this morning before the repair
@@WowItzAkinaany update on the issue?
Dozens of videos and none show the passenger side and how to get the plastic cover on that side off. That's the part I'm looking for
Nice

My manual says .041-.047
I have no idea what a "gap" is. You didnt explain or show what you did there....
Missed something anti crap I've heard if rusted problems
The only part that you should’ve explained more you didn’t
Every video on changing spark plugs. "You do NOT want to damage the threads on the alminum head, that would not be a good day" verbatim
Are you standing on a stool?
Yeah, that truck was pretty tall!!
Only O.E.M Mototorcraft for me. Good job otherwise.
Thank you!
SP548x is the way to go
Nice
