Would it be wise to change the boots while changing the plugs? I have just over 107k on the truck but i cant speak to when or if the plugs were changed on it. I bought the truck with 105k and its only misfired once and that was at WOT at around the 5000 rpm mark

Hi.

Absolutely.

And one misfire is one too many. More will likely follow....

good luck

4.6?

There is no NGK plug for a 5.4 3V with the unrevised heads (04 to mid-08)
