I swapped out my plugs yesterday with the help of this video. It took me about 3 hours between cleaning up and smoking a few bowls after each cylinder. Runs like a top
I used this video today to swap my plugs for the first time (back pat) I appreciate you making this a short 8 minute video vs the 38 minute video as the others do. My man!
Yes, please. I’d like to know if it were just as easy for you. Some folks on here said they finagled that cylinder 3 boot out without disconnecting the HPFP hose but I was concerned it would bend too much and get some kind of a tear in the boot
Thanks for the video bro. And thanks to the comments I didn’t remove those fuel lines or anything pretty easy job just a little time consuming. Unfortunately I used champion plugs my local auto stores didn’t have the motorcraft just gapped the champs to 0.51 running fine so far
Nice detail for 2019 Coyote. Surprised there’s not more videos out there on such a popular truck and engine. Just changed at 60K cylinder misfire code. code gone.
A, good to hear! I’ve had Ford trucks for years, all been good to me but plugs never seem to last past 52 k miles until I stay to get a stumble and misfire.
@@jackkkg7458 a code reader showed misfire on that cylinder? First, I would pull that coil and plug to make sure there’s not oil in the well (valve cover gasket leak). If not, just replace that one first. 👍🏽
Great video. I'm getting ready to change coils. Noticed I could buy 8 coils or 7 coils. This coil 3 doesn't use the same coil as the other 7? Do I need to purchase 7? Thanks
Yes, 7 coil packs (COPs) and the one, for the 2018 5.0 has a boot, connected to an old school wire, that connects to the coil pack. It’s nothing like the other 7 COPs. Almost like it’s re-routed👍🏽
I'm surprised that you are already changing the plugs on a 2018. I just started to notice decreased fuel economey on my 2015 this year and just ordered my plugs and grease.
I’m an “over maintenance guy”😂👍🏼 at 55k I’ve already changed the rear diff fluid myself, the T-case, all around breaks and rotors, cabin filter, air filter, and plugs. Yes, changing the plugs will definitely help your fuel economy especially if it’s an ecoboost (if you have the ecoboost) I hear the eco carbons up a lot but have the 5.0.
It burned a little too much for my liking when bought new. Nothing I panicked about but more than my former 5.4 Triton. Did 4 of my own oil consumption tests and it used less and less over time. Just changed oil again last week and it used 1.5 quarts in 2k miles, which is NOT a concern. These are both port and direct injection that WILL have blow-by (oil into PCV valve mainly from the port injection) also, when you research this on internet, all manufacturers I looked up all say engine oil consumption of up to a quart per 1k miles is typical for all cars. If you don’t get that puff of blue smoke at start up or on hard acceleration, your piston rings are fine. Also, my former F-150 5.4L was always 1/2 to 1 quart low between oil changes but it was also ONLY direct injection. 👍🏽
Yeah, I read that it’s common with the 2018-2020 5.0L’s. Mine has been doing that since I bought it new. The dealer did a TSB, which changed the PCV valves and the dipstick, but it didn’t fix the problem. Afterwards, they said the oil consumption was normal. 🙄 Now I got a code saying I need a new cat’ converter. I think the oil consumption made it do that.
@@VWhiteJr possibly but USUALLY, a cat converter is damaged by rich fuel mixture dumping fuel into the cat. How many miles on yours? Mines at 78k. Oh! And any issues with your 10r80?
It’s directly under that high pressure fuel pump, where you see my socket in the well. For some reason, the coil is separated from the boot connecting to the plug. There are 8 but yes, this video was made specifically all about cylinder 3👍🏽
I have a 2015 f150 with the 5.0 im at 63k miles, and its developed a rough idle, sometimes almost stalls, and a stutter or miss when accelerating, and definitely seems sluggish at time. Plugs or coils have never been changed. No check engine lights or codes. Does anyone have any suggestions, possibly need to just change spark plugs? Im not sure where to begin, especially since i have no codes
Unfortunately, this may be a VCT sol mood or cam phaser issue. Everyone including mechanics like to say everything is the cam phasers, and it never really is, but this symptom is about dead nuts a symptom of being stuck in retard timing. Usually, a spark plug Weill have like a bump feeling when going up a hill. Of course I can’t be positive but sounds like a cam phaser
I do the “I’ve worked on cars for years and have the feel” torque 😂👍🏼 basically you gently drop the plug in the well, use the socket to turn by hand, as STRAIGHT as possible so you don’t cross thread, then, once hand right, use the ratchet to turn about 1/4 turn or just to hand strength👍🏼
Just got my 2018 done at 99,613 miles. I watched this video then went off Jack Watters comment and took it to the next level and only pulled the boot on #3. No problem. All used plugs at 0.060” gap. Truck feels good

God dam right
@bradenengland3555 🤣
Lmao so 1 hr worth of work and 2 worth of rips
smoke em if ya got em

Finally a good video with simple instructions. About to knock it out tomorrow will update tomorrow

I think I figured it out, the single spark plug wire goes to a different looking coil than the others. Thx again
That #3 had me thinking, thanks for the walk through. Cheers to you Sir.
This is the best video for spark plug replacement he is on point thank you for saving me $400
Sure thing and glad it helped Big Mike😎👍🏽
Loved the “yo dawg” plug comment
😂👍🏽
Great video, you answered my question!!!
Oh good! 👍🏽
Good job! The remote plug threw me a curve. 2018 F150 5.0
Thanks 👍🏽

I was wondering why it was so easy to understand. Break it down Barney style. Semper Fi! Appreciate it brother.
Thank You! Made this project super easy! HUA!
Glad it helped!
This video helped me thanks
Bro, thanks for the heads up on the remote start nuance. Great vid!
Thanks 👍🏼
What’s the nuance with the remote start? I totally missed that part . Otherwise great video
@@osoburr863 thanks, Don. That part may not be relevant, but I’ve seen some videos on the plug re-rout possibly be for the remote start.

Never even touched the fuel line, leave the fuel line alone.
I didn’t remove nothing when changing cylinder 3’s spark plug
Must have been a very steady hand
What did you torque thos plugs too? Or did you just go goodntight?

@@kineticenergy1085 good to know. I got a 2018 5.0 with only 26 k miles thats got a cylinder misfire. Figured id start with plugs first
@@jJohnMcClane absolutely, and always the plugs with Fords (I’ve had many since 1997) never anything serious 👍🏼
Ell yah brother
Bro that was my exact reaction Lmfao
🤣👍🏽
Cylinder 3 has 2 screws
The plug/cylinder in this video is under the HPFP, which appears to be cylinder 3 per my diagram. Either way, the one under the HPFP👍🏽
@@grey5.087 static.summitracing.com/global/images/FAQs/4981/Coyote_Firing_Order.png
I was able to do this without removing the fuel line
Yalls one slick talented brother then👍🏼
Me too it was easy I just remove the coil pack with the two screws and pulled it boot out and it was easy to get to with the extension

@@rjeepster8640 how did you change plug wire
I did too but with out it is more easy to work
That’s the wrong side that’s cylinder 6
