the only reason i asked is because some people have had trouble with any other brand BESIDES motorcraft. i would put motorcraft back in if it was me.

yes they were Motorcraft plugs. But i think that my fuel filter had a lot to do with it. As fare as changing them out just take your time. I used some brake cleaner after i broke the plugs lose to help them carbon to brake up. It will help you get them out with out braking them off. I took out the last plugs with over 100000 miles on them. They were also Motorcraft plugs
