how difficult is it to change spark plugs on a 2002 ford explorer. It is a 4x4 and has the initials on it xtl or something like that. Can you please help me cause they are trying to charge me an arm and leg to have it done.
Obviously- the spark plugs were not the issue :)
For a 2001 Ford Explorer Sport Trac : There are ( 6 spark plugs ) for your 4.0 liter V6 engine
For a 1997 Ford Explorer 4.0 liter V6 engine ( EFI and SOHC versions ) ( There are 6 spark plugs )
Make sure you are using Ford OEM (Motorcraft is not always OEM) Spark Plugs that are designed for you explorer.
In a 2002 Ford Expedition : For the 4.6 or 5.4 liter V8 engines : (there are 8 spark plugs )
Check the Vehicle Emission Control Information ( VECI ) decal located in the front of the engine compartment ( it will show what type of spark plugs to use and the spark plug gap )
Screwed into the heads.
The spark plugs on a Ford Explorer are replaced by first disconnecting the battery. Remove the spark plug using a spark plug socket. Replace with the factory recommended spark plug.
