I've Heard About This Spark Plug Issue And Was Wondering If Anyone With An 07 And Up F150 Have Had Any Issues? If So, Whats The Deal With The Brisk Plugs? Why Are They Better? SHOULD I CHANGE MINE NOW TO AVOID THE PROBLEM? ONLY 3500 MILES ON TRUCK SO FAR.

 

SHOULD I TRY DOING IT MY SELF SINCE I ONLY HAVE 3500 MILES ON MY TRUCK?

 

The brisk plugs are all one piece and shouldn't break off like the motorcraft. Have a look at https://www.f150forum.com/f4/most-expensive-tune-up-ever-3v-5-4-a-5497/ (see page 4 for pictures).
According to that thread you shouldn't have the problem in an 06+. I'm interested in this too since I have an 07 with only 5,000 miles. Any official work on this?

 

So Out Of Curiosity I Ignored All Warnings And Pulled Out One Of My Spark Plugs. It Was No Problem. But I Only Have 3,500 Miles On It. The Plug Was Clean But I Can See Future Problems. The Design Is Horrible. Their Was A Small Amount Of Carbon On It But Nothing To Be Alarmed About. (just Normal Wear) I Coted It With Anti-seize And Put It Back In, But I Am Seriously Thinking About Buying The Brisk Plugs. I'm Wondering If The New Brisk Halo Plugs Are Also One Piece And If They Even Make Them For Our Trucks? I'm Having A Hard Time Finding A Dealer For The Brisk Plugs, Does Anyone Know Of Any? I Have A Call In To Troyer Performance But I Live In Cali And Would Like To Buy Local If Possible. As For Ford Fixing The Problem On The06 And Up Trucks I've Heard All They Did Was Put Some Anti-seize On The Plugs. This Will Help But In My Opinion Will Not Stop The Problem. Anti-seize Doesn't Last Forever.

im kind of dissapointed in my fellow forum members for completely missing the boat on this post. Reading all of the complaints is understandable, but a complete redesign of the plug and no one bats an eyelash is somewhat disconcerting for all of the concern we seem to have.

 

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT A COMPLETE REDESIGN OF THE PLUG IS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED. SURE, I WISH THAT FORD WOULD JUST SEND OUT A FACTORY RECALL AND TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THAT WON'T EVER HAPPEN. SO I AM LEFT TO FIND A SOLUTION MYSELF. I WOULD MUCH RATHER CORRECT THE ISSUE NOW BEFORE I PUT MORE MILES ON MY RIG. ANY INFO ABOUT THESE BRISK PLUGS OR ANY OTHER ONE PIECE PLUGS THAT WILL REPLACE FORD'S SCREW UP WOULD BE GREAT.

 

Just Found A New One Piece Replacement Plug. It's A Champion Part#7989. Check It Out At Championsparkplugs.com

 

caps lock off, please.

 

That's even more expensive than the Brisk plug.

 

They Are Still Cheaper Than Repairing Even One Broken Plug.
