WHILE DRIVING THE EXCURSION AT A SPEED AROUND 35 MPH, HEARD A VERY LOAD POP NOISE FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND LOST POWER FROM THE ENGINE AND THE VEHICLE ROLLED TO A STOP. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO MY LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP FOR TROUBLE SHOOTING PURPOSE. THEY TOLD ME THE NUMBER 7 SPARK PLUG BLEW OUT FROM THE HEAD. THE FIX WAS EITHER A HELI-COIL OR A NEW HEAD. THE HELICOIL COST WAS 900 DOLLARS AND THE HEAD WAS 4500 DOLLARS. READING THIS SITE AND MANY MORE THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF SIZES FROM FORD MOTORS WITH THE SPARK PLUG BLOWING OUT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WILL TAKE FOR A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. I GUESSNOTHING GETS DONE UNTIL SOMEBODY IS KILLED. *

OUR RV SEEMED SLUGGISH ON GOING UP ON HILLS, THEN SUDDEN ENGINE FAILURE WHILE GOING UPHILL ON HWY 77 IN WV. TOWED TO A LARGE AAA REPAIR CENTRE, WHERE THEY LOOKED INTO SOME SPARK PLUGS AND PULLED 5 OUT, ONE OF WHICH WAS SO BADLY DAMAGED, FLATTENED WITH TWISTED THREADS, THEY DETERMINED IT NEEDS A NEW ENGINE. HAD IT TOWED AGAIN DEC. 26 TO AN AUTHORIZED FORD DEALER. THEY INSPECTED THE ENGINE AND FOUND A HOLE IN ONE OF THE PISTONS. REPAIR WOULD BE NEW ENGINE ASSEBLY. NOT ONE THAT HAS SEEN THE SPARK PLUG AND KNOW THE MILES (29,500) ON THIS RV BELIEVE THAT THIS COULD OR SHOULD HAPPEN. IT NEEDS TO BE TOWED AGAIN TO A CAPABLE REPAIR SHOP, WHICH SEEMS TO BE EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND. FORDS MOTOR COMPANY
