Spark Plug Removal
2 Attachment(s)
Had the two piece Motorcraft Spark Plugs changed out in the 2007 GT to the one piece Champion 7989. Some pics of the broken plugs. 7 hours of labor to get them out. New plugs, Lisle Removal Tool and Labour $525.00. I understand that there has been a class action award against Ford in the USA for this problem not sure about Canada. I will phone Ford Canada on Monday to find out.

That sucks Ray...I was hoping it wasn't going to go that way for you. Still, it could have been worse...you didn't have to pull the heads.

Pretty common. I've heard lots of horror stories...my wife's uncle had the ones in his F150 done last year to the tune of $1200.
Good luck calling Ford Ray. This class action exists for F150's. http://www.fordsparkplugsettlement.com/ |
Ouch!

Had it done on three F150's and 23/24 plugs broke. Two trucks had the head removed and total bill for the three combined was about $5000. I doubt it actually took them 7 hours to get them out. It's been a common problem for a long time and there are some guys that are really good at it.
