5.4 liter V8? Yes, the coils frequently fail on this design I suggest replacing all plugs and coils at the same time That way, you won’t be doing them one at a time, over the course of months or years, which really gets annoying ---

Hi, of course I forgot to mention that it’s the #2 that “burns” the coils, not blows it out, burns it, same one, three times, test drive lasted one mile , twice. ``` mechanics say they have never seen a coil burn up like these. Thanks for the response! ``` ---
