WTF Spark plug socket
Ive gone through every socket I have, and cannot get one to seat over the spark plug.
90 f150, I6, 4x4, 4spd.
What size do I need? Im starting to think previous owner used the wrong size.
Ive used 3/4 and 19mm, and its not big enough. but I dont want to go out and buy single sockets at $4 a piece just to figure out the right one.

Okie.
Mine is 3/4 and I have a 300 6 also. I'd also try all the standard plug sockets. 5/8, 13/16, 3/4 and I think 15/16 or 7/8 is another

I just bought a nice Stanley deep impact socket set. Quality made but it was missing the two sizes that i use quite often when i'm working on my truck.
15 & 18 MM
I'm starting to wonder if it's a Ford thing to keep us Yahoos out from under the hood.
(Can't do the job if you don't have the tool.)

The socket to remove and install my plugs was 13/16's, tried some standard sockets and they didn't work, I brought the plug to the store and it fit the old plugs as well.
