OTC 6900 Ford F-150 Spark Plug Socket, Gray

Did coils and plugs in my 06 5.4l f150 and didn’t break a single plug. This tool was VERY important and useful for the job.

I didn't use this to remove the plugs, just used conventional 3/8 drive tools, etc. But this tool works good for installation with the knurled end so you can spin plugs in by hand, then torque them to finish the install. One piece long socket eliminates needing to tape extension to a socket, and it's 9/16 which isn't real common anyway for a spark plug socket with a rubber insert. Worked perfect on a 2004 F150 5.4 3V.

My mechanic recommended the specialty socket for my 5.3.

another accessory for my husbands tool box the product is well made and will be passed on for generations the seller was so easy to work with quickly got it out so we could get err back on the road

5.4L triton worked well

If you’re tired of having to try to find a socket to fit the spark plugs on the 5.4 engine this is the one and it’s not too expensive

I got lucky, This is pretty much the way the factory wants you to perform the spark plug change(early Ford 3v V8 have a stupid 2 piece plug that can break off from carbon buildup)First I ran techron fuel injector cleaner in the gas tank and drove it for a while to try and clean away the possible carbon buildup on the spark plugs. When ready for the change I warmed up the car up by taking it for a drive first then used compressed air to remove debris from the spark plug area removed coils, cleaned area again with compressed air. I sprayed a small bit of wd-40 down the holes. Cracked the spark plugs 1/8 to 1/4 turn then sprayed carb cleaner down the holes and let soak for a while.If your the plugs break loose but then are hard to remove- be careful to not use more than 35 ftlbs of torque to remove, you have to work them loose with carb cleaner, lightly tighten and loosen a bit at a time while working more carb cleaner down the hole.I got lucky and only one plug was tight but came out after a few back and forth twisting. If you are unlucky then you need a special lisle ford spark plug removal tool or remove the head if that fails.When installing the new plugs use silver anti-seize on the smooth extension as well as the threads, do not coat the electrode strap.Late 2008 they changed the design to a one piece spark plug, ford has a new design for these spark plugs, best practice is to replace these every 50k miles to avoid the carbon buildup.

Best value and did not snap the old spark plugs which are two-piece plugs. Nice when installing the new plugs and did not need a magnet to remove the old plugs!

Works great for those spark plugs for ford 04 to 08 no issues.

Worked well to reach down to get the plugs out. Made the job much easier

Merci

Works great on my ford. Perfect fit and made it easy to pull out the sparkplugs

Tool works as expected. Item arrived ahead of schedule.
