Ok thanks. I have an 07 with the 4.6. I appreciate the response.

No problem, and not everyone with a 5.4 has plug issues. I replaced mine, myself at 113K with none breaking, I used the seafoam in the gas trick for 250 miles and pulled them on a warm engine.

Thanks guys for clearing this up.from what I was reading I thought it was both engines in this truck with the problem.i feel sorry for the folks with the 5.4 but I'm so glad this may not be a concern for me.

Just to clarify, 2008 5.4 Tritons may or may not have the updated head. My 2008 has the old design...i.e. Has black boots. Mid year change I guess.
