I have a 1998 with the 5.4 V-8. Have not had any engine problem, but for my very low 25K accumulated miles, I have had plenty of other problems. And the dealer tried to rip me off, succeeded once. Torsion bar (4WD) broke at 16K miles while parked. Cost me over $400.00 for dealer to replace. My turn signal switch messed up, dealer quoted $500.00 for repair. I bought new switch online, delivered to my door for less than $70.00. Took me less than 40 minutes to replace, including getting out tools and storing them afterward. Please keep us informed about the spark plug matter. Ford is bleeding red ink on the balance sheet right now.
