Thanks to everyone who has responded. Your replies are helpful!
Unless it's a 3 valve 5.4. Get that engine warm and use an impact to get them out. Ask any Ford tech.Always cold to prevent thread damage.
I was gonna bring this up and Northstar mentioned it in this thread, too.Unless it's a 3 valve 5.4. Get that engine warm and use an impact to get them out. Ask any Ford tech.
Is that why Milwaukee released this:I was gonna bring this up and Northstar mentioned it in this thread, too.
I haven't tried it yet but it seems well accepted by many (not all) that you wanna get that sucker hot and zing 'em out with an impact wrench.
I need to do this on the wife's '08 F150....
And this by LISLE. It works very well.Is that why Milwaukee released this:

True. But we don't live in a perfect world.The point is to avoid having to use that.
It depends on the car. Refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations in the service manual. My Subaru says cold but for my Ford the service manual had multiple huge warnings about taking out spark plugs on a “cold-soaked engine”.Any thoughts on the thread title?
Thanks in advance to any/ all who answer. Oh, btw... aluminum head.
I would think it would suck dirt INTO the cylinder through the spark plug hole on the intake stroke.Another question
is it alright to crank DI engine a couple of times without the plugs to get rid of the dirt/residue from the cylinder head
i remember my cousin would do this on regular EFI engines, but I'm not sure for DI engines these days?
Use an air wand on an air compressor hose to blow the wells out before and after removing the plugs.Another question

I would not, you could easily suck dirt in. Plus with stop start buttons, its difficult to bump a starter.Another question
