100% ONLY motorcraft or OEM on these. Aftermarket does not last long or sometimes doesn't act right altogether on these. Just do it right & use quality parts the 1st time!!
You have the clearest instructions of any video I've ever seen. I appreciate you're honesty about the difficulty level ex. having to do things blind & the tools you've laid out before hand. You are the only one that has been actually been helpful by just sticking to the task at hand & not muddying it up with a bunch of unnecessary bullshit. P.S. be sure to video the next time you do a repair from start to finish so we can see the actual process in it's entirety. Thanks
Thanks for your comment. I appreciate your honest and straightforward feedback. I do have about 320 repair videos. Filming an entire repair from start to finish could cause some people to fall asleep. 😂
I like what Matt said. I hardly ever accepted work on a van in my day. And now I'm just not that flexible or skinny. But the video isn't about me. :) You did a great job taking on that job and showing all the steps.
I just replaced all 8 plugs on my 2013 E350 and this video was a huge help! I was able to remove and replace all 8 plugs from inside the vehicle with little trouble. I will say that taking the extra 15 minutes to remove both front seats was a huge time saver as it made it much easier to reach all of the coils and plugs. I did remove the PCV valve hose as it was routed over plugs 2,3 & 4 as well as removing a bracket that held some other vacuum switch on the back of the intake plenum. I was careful to hand tighten all 8 plugs (about 8 turns) before putting a torque wrench on each one to get the torque set consistently at 11-14 ft.lbs. Overall it wasn't as difficult as I had suspected, about 3 hours of works at a leisurely pace.
Finally someone who shows you the Meat and Potatoes of the job! You told me everything I need to do in 10:42 seconds! Thank you. There are videos that are ridiculously long and waste so much time. Again, thank you.
Great job showing the details of what's entailed in doing a tuneup on these. I always enjoyed these myself, E or F series vans & trucks. Not many ppl like working on them, but I'll take them all day. Small hands and being able to perch myself up on the engine bay works out well for me. Lol. Take care Glen!
Good job dude.explained well. I brought my Econoline 250 super duty 2007 to mechanic I had 6 misfires he said he replaced spark plugs bla bla $578.00 my truck now runs much, much worse the CK engine light blinks now, he had it 5 days. A tree fell on my Lincoln last summer, crushed trunk,blew out back window. I went to junk yard got trunk,rear window did all but paint it. Even body shop F**** UP letters. I don't trust ANYONE!!! what the hell happened to competency?? I am a contractor 30 yrs. I do my best for every customer. I will fix this Van MYSELF! thankfully people like you help us MEN out here to fix our own things. I also put a starter on my Lincoln myself. Thx again keep up good videos!!
I know what you mean Kevin about incompetent people, and lately it's real bad! A flashing check engine light is a misfire and that's not good. Hopefully you can figure out what's wrong and make it right. Let me know how it goes. -Glen (Ozz)
Tools mentioned: 3/8th ratchet 5/8th spark plug socket, 6 inch extension, 1 inch extension, Shorty 3/8th ratchet For coils: 1/4 6 inch extension 7mm socket. Someone mentioned removing other things from the seat to some brackets inside, Another mentioned using a compressor to remove debris! Hope this helps!
Coming to this in 2022. EXCELLENT video and it's so refreshing to see and hear it done in such a professional manner. Hats off to you and God bless, my friend.
Thanks so much, I had an estimate of $1,200 to replace all of my plugs and coil packs-don't think so! I've never really been an auto mechanic type but with UA-cam and guys like you, I can do this and save a bundle. Thanks.
You are welcome John. Take your time and be patient as you work. Good luck with the fix, use OEM parts pinned above in the description and you should be good to go for a long time.
@@uski59 well, each of those shit Ford coils is $80x8 from dealer, so there's $640 right there, plus plugs, labor, that might include plug/ignition wiring, etc etc etc so yeah. Still sounds crazy high, I think mechanics are gonna be rich for a while thanks to burdens mandates fucking everything up...
Great video, thank you. Your camera work was good and left a clear field of view. I would add to make sure you blow out the area of the spark plugs after you pull the coil boot. Then blow it out again after you start turning the plugs out. You don't want anything falling down into the cylinder. I even go so far as to stick the compressor wand down into the spark plug hole and blow out the cylinder just before I install the new spark plug. You really don't want any junk going into the cylinders.
Great job in explaining how to get those plugs and coils out! I'm sure the information will help a lot of folks out there. Oh, by the way, one of my brother's nickname is Dookie. Have a good one Glen!
Thanks brotha! I was staring at that fuel rail thinking how am I gonna do this?? This helped get me straight. Swapped out the coil in no time and now my RV is running smooth. Not sure what the repair cost would have been but sure it saved me some $$. Great video and thanks again!
To do Cyl #1 did you do it from inside or from under the hood ? And does Coil pack on Cyl 1 also 'bend' out of the way to remove without removing fuel rail ? Help !! thanks.
so he just shows you the easiest one. I just did this side... 1-4 last week & #2 was pain. the other 2 were harder than 4 as well. I'm gonna start 5-8 today or tomorrow. I'm concerned about that fuel line blocking #8. talks about the other ones but doesn't show how to. Can't complain tho.. this video helped me get started.
That's because it is nearly impossible to film the other cylinders. He talks about that in the video. You must e one of those video watching skipping guys? If you would like to sponsor him he would be glad to show you how the other 7 plugs are changed out. Oops, I mean sponsor me.
The #1 cylinder is famous for misfiring, many times due to the intake manifold cracking and leaking into the sparkplug tube. Check for wetness! Good luck and let us know what you find.
I’ve got an E250. 2012. 365,000 miles on it...still runs good... I did change out the plugs and coils .. all of them at about 230,000 miles and I had to change out a couple sensors a while back... I had to replace ball joints and tie rod ends..and that’s about it.. nothing else except brakes and calipers ..... do your maintenance and drive responsibly and you’ll get a lot of life out of those vans
Thanks for taking the time to show this. What a great video! Im a DIYer. Just bought a second hand 2004, 4.6L E250 with 220K miles. She runs beautifully and I want to keep it that way. When i removed the doghouse to look at the sparkplugs I couldn't believe how packed that engine space was! How does anyone reach in there? Thanks for the tool tips as well
Thank you handsome. I have a miss so I'm gonna go replace them all since I don't have a scan tool. I bought the 2004 e250 about 3 months ago for $2,800 has way alot miles 273, 000. I know I should have waited but I was so tired of looking. It ran great. Air works, and i drive it everyday to work. I changed its oil & filter & air filter myself It doesn't like hills very much but apparently it's common with this year. But for some reason the battery was dead and I think it was the terminal hopefully. I cleaned it but it still messed up cause I haven't drove far enough to charge. The idle is rough big time., but it idles better when I turn on A/C. I work alittle on vehicles so Im gonna ck vacume hoses and replace sparkplugs. I plan on taking good care of this old van cause it's soon to be my home. I tore out all the metal shelving which was a pain for me I even had to cut some parts out with my grinder. I now have hardwood floor, frig/freezer, fake but looks real wood stove heater. My bed a fold down desk and some other things. Its cozy. I will do a video eventually. I just hope I can get to know my motor well so i can take care of her. I hope the plugs work and there's no more miss in the idle.I just decided I'm gonna put semi expensive sparkplug wires. Anyone have a van like mine?Which boots and wire set do you think is the best for this old van???
Great presentation. Easy to understand. I have a misfire on cylinder 7. I got everything cleared out of the cab and I rearranged the tools in the back so I was able to push the seats back and hopefully that'll give me enough room to work. I'm going to attempt to tackle it this morning.
I’m learning this lesson currently. Replaced all the plugs and coils back in December. The mechanic used cheap aftermarket coils. 2 have gone bad in 10 months. What a pain.
1995 Ford E-150,Took the carpet off passenger side, checked all under side for wires ,or lines,,,,, took a reciptackle saw, with a millawake steel cutting saw,, and cut the floor 3,6 inches,grabbed some channel locks pulled the steel floor back so i could reach 1,and2 spark plugs, also pulled the passenger tire off and used extensions , with a 1/2" driver, got everything off, took some finesse and time, but got it done
Oh yeah I love me some Ford work all day! Great tips Glen...sorry I've been neglecting your videos as of late man. I'm catching up with everyone out there. Having wobblies, a good assortment of various length extensions, and some good flexhead ratchets are a must on these types of jobs for sure! Thanks for sharing this Glen!
You need to blow out the spark plug port before you take the spark plugs out in order to stop any debris getting down in the cylinder port. Very important.
I'm amazed at this video. I watched another video about the same thing and this other guy said he had to remove both fuel rails. You mentioned nothing about removing all the stuff he did. I have already dealt with the #4 coil and plug and really want to do the rest. I hope it's just as you described it without removing the fuel rails. I hope you will reply with the answer. Thanks for the heads up.
As I said in the video, pull up on the coil to release it from the sparkplug then bend slightly outward and up. No fuel rail removal is necessary in this case.
Lots of good info here. My plugs took a bit of force to break free but once I got movement they all came out easily. New plugs in and misfire gone. Cheers mate!
Hears a crucial tip for ANY sparkplugs R&R GET YOUR PLUG WRENCH BREAK THEM PLUGS LOOSE USE A RUBBER HOSE THAT FITS ONTO THEM PLUG AND THERE YOU HAVE TWIST OFF TWIST ON YOU'RE SO WELCOME😅 ow boys this is gonna grow like there's no yesteryears😊
After watching this it's makes me think my engine may not be that bad off. Repair shop is saying I need an engine replacement but it could be bad coils.
I did but I'm not sure I trust the shop. I have a friend who is a mechanic he's coming by next week. The engine has over 200,000 miles. Wires and plugs were charged a few years ago but not the coils.
I have to say I "liked" your video, but I can't say I "enjoyed" it. I got a 2000 E-150 van with the "service engine soon" light on and it's apparently had these coil on plug problems before. My dad took it to a garage, but I see this job coming in my future, I'm predicting a LOT of cussing. Thanx for the video.
This is my first time to do this on my 2005 E350 van. It seems there are different techniques. I've changed 3 and 4 so far working from inside. It seems like it would be easier ,as one guy shows , to release the fuel rail. I am hesitant to do that.
Hi, I have replaced 4 and number 3 cylinder ignition coil &splugs was very difficult to replace so I would really appreciate if you can make a video or something to explain DIY’s like me how to replace without braking anything thank you Temur
5 and 6 from the front are very do-able. 7 and 8 from the rear, very do-able. 4 from the rear, do-able. 1,2 and 3 I'm not sure. I gave up by then. Lots of crap in the way of these three. Make sure you have a quarter inch swivel joint for your little ratchet. You will need it. Prepare for having your hands scratched and beat up working these tight confined component crowded spaces. If you can do all eight, I applaud you. I only got five. About two hours per plug. This is why I wouldn't trust a mechanic; He might give up like I did and not say anything. But I'll bet he gave up on plugs 1, 2, or 3! I personally feel proud that I went 5 out of 8 rounds! Wish I could have gone the distance, but we are not all Rocky Balboa and love to take a good beating. Happy wrenching my fellow Nutz and Boltzers!
I can not believe I wasted all of that time just to hear a click I didn't even hear, someone had to tell me that I heard it :) Just breakin your balls a lil bit , thanks for the video and taking the time
Now that I think of it, I've never worked on a van in my life! Never really thought about it, but that's the truth. Looks like I should be thankful! 🤣 My arms, shoulders, & knees would be in agony - same reason I hate interior work so much. Great tips here, Glen - I'll remember this if I ever get one in here (fingers crossed that I don't 😂).
You are a lucky man Smitty. It's stuff like this that makes you feel grateful working on something that doesn't have a 'doghouse' that needs to be removed for access.
I did plugs on old Chevy Astro Van for my brother in law once. Had to get some plugs from the bottom and some from the dog house on top. I did one from the bottom and went to the and pulled the next and looked at it and it was brand new. It was the same one I from the bottom. Hands all scraped and cut up. Boy was I pissed.
One of those nightmare jobs that make you think what the hell am I doing here! 😂 Thanks for checking out the video Glen. (One N Glen, that's the right way to spell it!) haha Take care.

Thanks man! This was super clear and helpful! I’m going to be trying to change the coils, spark plugs and possibly fuel injectors on my 08 van!
Good for you using Motorcraft parts. We have a fleet of Ford E-series shuttles and it seems the only ignition coils which last are Motorcraft.
I use OEM parts when possible. Doing the job twice sucks especially when it's someone else's vehicle.
I’m learning this lesson currently. Replaced all the plugs and coils back in December. The mechanic used cheap aftermarket coils. 2 have gone bad in 10 months. What a pain.

Much appreciated!
Thanks for the video man this was very helpful! I ended up torqing to 22lb, worried about them blowing out.

Take your time Glen and hopefully things go smooth. One cylinder at a time!
Perfect vid. Helped alot. Thank you 👍

Great video broski
Thank You. Great video and explanation.
I appreciate your comment Jack. Thanks! -Glen
Lots of good info here. My plugs took a bit of force to break free but once I got movement they all came out easily. New plugs in and misfire gone. Cheers mate!
Nice work!
Thank you so much for posting!
You're welcome Suz!
Hears a crucial tip for ANY sparkplugs R&R GET YOUR PLUG WRENCH BREAK THEM PLUGS LOOSE USE A RUBBER HOSE THAT FITS ONTO THEM PLUG AND THERE YOU HAVE TWIST OFF TWIST ON YOU'RE SO WELCOME😅
ow boys this is gonna grow like there's no yesteryears😊
Hi sir, are you trying to tell us something by saying we now need to add an additional 1" extension after watching this video.
It's true Will, who couldn't use an extra inch! 🍆😂
Cylinder 7 is killing me
Fun times!
7 and 8 usually has 2B Healeycoiled. Junk!
Great job man! there are a lot of shitty videos out there. You keep it simple and clear. Thanks!!
I try. Thanks for your comment.
After watching this it's makes me think my engine may not be that bad off. Repair shop is saying I need an engine replacement but it could be bad coils.
Better get a proper diagnosis. Engines aren't cheap.
I did but I'm not sure I trust the shop. I have a friend who is a mechanic he's coming by next week. The engine has over 200,000 miles. Wires and plugs were charged a few years ago but not the coils.
Thanks for the great instruction and video on changing these out
You're welcome Allen.
Much appreciated! Especially the steps you called out.
👍
I have to say I "liked" your video, but I can't say I "enjoyed" it. I got a 2000 E-150 van with the "service engine soon" light on and it's apparently had these coil on plug problems before. My dad took it to a garage, but I see this job coming in my future, I'm predicting a LOT of cussing. Thanx for the video.
After you do this job a couple of times it's almost easy. Have fun and don't forget to put your money in the swear jar. haha
Thanks!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Thank you have e150 and gonna try this
This is my first time to do this on my 2005 E350 van. It seems there are different techniques. I've changed 3 and 4 so far working from inside. It seems like it would be easier ,as one guy shows , to release the fuel rail. I am hesitant to do that.
Why waste time on that? If you do install new orings on the injectors.
Make it look not too bad .. good vid
Thanks Robert. After doing it a few times it gets easier but never fun.
Wish I would of found this video before taking apart my fuel rail
That becomes a big job.
Thank you for this very descriptive video.
You are welcome Stacy.
You also need compressed air to blow dirt and debris out before removing plugs. Otherwise, there will be engine problem
That's good practice but not necessary on a clean engine.
Hi, I have replaced 4 and number 3 cylinder ignition coil &splugs was very difficult to replace so I would really appreciate if you can make a video or something to explain DIY’s like me how to replace without braking anything thank you
Temur
Thanks for making this video. It was a lot of help!
You're welcome!
5 and 6 from the front are very do-able. 7 and 8 from the rear, very do-able. 4 from the rear, do-able. 1,2 and 3 I'm not sure. I gave up by then. Lots of crap in the way of these three. Make sure you have a quarter inch swivel joint for your little ratchet. You will need it. Prepare for having your hands scratched and beat up working these tight confined component crowded spaces. If you can do all eight, I applaud you. I only got five. About two hours per plug. This is why I wouldn't trust a mechanic; He might give up like I did and not say anything. But I'll bet he gave up on plugs 1, 2, or 3! I personally feel proud that I went 5 out of 8 rounds! Wish I could have gone the distance, but we are not all Rocky Balboa and love to take a good beating. Happy wrenching my fellow Nutz and Boltzers!
1,2 and 3 plugs from the front. Remove 3 coil from the back. I can do all 8 plugs in 1.25 hours easily. Gravy job
Dude everything I need to know. THANK YOY!!!
Awesome, glad it helped you Derick!
OUTSTANDING~!! Awesome video, very informative, and very well done.
Thank you Dan for your comment! I appreciate the feedback. -Glen
Excellent video. Just one question, shouldn't you blow out the sparkplug hole with compressed air before you remove the plug?
That's good practice.
I can not believe I wasted all of that time just to hear a click I didn't even hear, someone had to tell me that I heard it :)
Just breakin your balls a lil bit , thanks for the video and taking the time
😄👍
U save my life thanks for the video
👍
Thanks so much ! You are awesome!
Glad it helped!
Thank you sr your video it was very helpful and very nice to show how it's done..
You're welcome Ricardo.
Now that I think of it, I've never worked on a van in my life! Never really thought about it, but that's the truth. Looks like I should be thankful! 🤣 My arms, shoulders, & knees would be in agony - same reason I hate interior work so much.
Great tips here, Glen - I'll remember this if I ever get one in here (fingers crossed that I don't 😂).
You are a lucky man Smitty. It's stuff like this that makes you feel grateful working on something that doesn't have a 'doghouse' that needs to be removed for access.
Wow! Thank You!!! Very appreciative of this video. Good job!
You're very welcome!
A nother thing I recommend is anti seize on them threads will dry as dirt then drop in the sparkplug hole and possibly risk a valve to burn😮😢
Thanks for the clear explanation bud
You got it Justin! 👍
You're awesome thank you so much I live in my van I got a 5.4 you're awesome buddy
#vanlife passing around the tip jar.👍 Thanks Mike for the comment.
Thanks for the walkthrough, much appreciated 👊
You're welcome and thanks for stopping by.
Thank you my man!
You got it Pause.👍
I did plugs on old Chevy Astro Van for my brother in law once. Had to get some plugs from the bottom and some from the dog house on top. I did one from the bottom and went to the and pulled the next and looked at it and it was brand new. It was the same one I from the bottom. Hands all scraped and cut up. Boy was I pissed.
One of those nightmare jobs that make you think what the hell am I doing here! 😂 Thanks for checking out the video Glen. (One N Glen, that's the right way to spell it!) haha Take care.
Tough one to film . Nobody likes to work on Van's especially me :)
You do it all Steve!
@@ozzstars_cars Yes absolutely, it's called halfass expertise from 40 + years ago. 🤣🤣
