    Default 100% proof Big H is bad luck


    So the big came over to the house yesterday evening to pick up a FF for Big C. On the way to work this morning I crossed the rr tracks and bam
    sounded like the exhaust manifold came off and the drive shaft shucked. Well NKF. Called the wife told her to meet me at the shop cuz I need to get on a few conference calls with work. Now keep in mind he wasn't at the house any longer than 5 minutes and his feet barely touched my yard.
    Ended up it blew a spark plug plumb out of the head NKF. No big deal except I have to have a shop do it cuz I am covered up at work. I must say though that 5.4L is stout--it made it 273k on ORIGINAL PLUGS Big C--since Big H has touched that FF I offer NO WARRANTY AT ALL.

    I still have to say I got a good deal--told the guy at the shop what I paid (different shop) and he looked at me like I was lying--he said you got a heck of a deal even if you gotta do some work--as long as I keep Big H away--should be good to go

    You might get better gas mileage considering you prolly have compression on that cylinder now!Did the shop check the rest of the plugs or did you replace them all?
