SP-546 same as SP-515 plug?
Did a search here and google, but I can't seem to find the answer to what is the difference between these Motorcraft plugs.
Doing a plug change tomorrow and had ordered the SP-515's from Amazon, but they sent SP-546 which look the same and would fit, but I'm unsure if I should use them. Guessing they are either a new version, or old stock. Any help is much appreciated! |
What motor do you have ? Not the same plugs !

Triton 5.4
This is the 2nd change, last done 80k ago using SP-515. Funny thing is, there are a few sites that list the plugs SP-515/SP-546. They look identical, but there is virtually no information I can find regarding them. |
what are the other numbers on the plugs
I see some reference to this new number but no real info

I hate to have to send these plugs back to Amazon since they were a really good price ($64 for 8), but unless I know they are indeed the same as SP-515's I'm not going to chance it. Really aggravating on the vendors part to not have listed the plugs as some others have as SP-515/SP546. Would not have ordered them if I thought they might send something other than SP-515's. |
The SP-507's broke .. replaced by the SP-515's.. never heard of the SP-546.

If it were me, I'd call the dealer with my vin and see what plugs are needed...never heard of the sp546

The secondary part# on these, PZK14F turns up as SP-515 on many searches. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/mof-sp515 The boxes look brand new. I'm beginning to think these are a newer version based on that, and so little info out on the web. So new in fact, a google search for SP-546 turns up this thread as the second listing LMAO. Edit: I just received this response from the vendor Auto Parts Wholesale. The SP-515 have been superseded by the SP-546 by Ford. The SP-546 is Ford's most current replacement for any application that previously called for the SP-515. Please advise. I'm going to be our Guinea Pig. |
Maybe word was getting around that the 515's were failing out of the box. Maybe that's the replacement
|
I am wondering too if ford is behind this??
Since I am warning lots of people of out of the box failures on sp515's . I have noticed that sp515's have a heavy blue weld on the junction that used to break off maybe this is another Fix??? That kind of heat near porcelain can break it .
If it is, they need to come out with it . Can the op post some pictures of these plugs and their boxes . |
