The anti-seize should be applied to the barrel only, not the threads themselves. From the fatter part above the crimp down to about 1/4 above the ground strap.

Well got the CEL this morning so I was able to pull what cylinder is missing. #2 I need to check it out but it's like 12 degrees outside in my garage. Wish I had a heated shop.

Default Plug coil swap

had the dealer complete the plug and coil change on the 5.4 3v 2006. Truck had 120k never changed before. They sold me on this BG induction service for 120 bones claiming it would break up all carbon etc etc and help free the plugs which it did...no breaks. Ordered all MC parts online got the sp515 plugs and dg511 coils all for 360 smackers dealer charged the same for this induction service and labor so all said and done under 8 bills. I'll tackle this mission myself in the next 100k. Truck was studdering and shaking now smooth and sexy. Like your Moms

Pulled my front mud flaps off last night. One was mangled a bit and rubbed through, was touching the drivers side wheel on turns.
