Consumer Description

I WAS GOING TO THE LAKE WHEN I HEARD A PINGING IN THE ENGINE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I STOPPED TO CHECK THE OIL LEVEL. THERE WAS PLENTY OF OIL. I DROVE TO THE LAKE AND HAD A GREAT DAY OF FISHING. ON THE WAY HOME, I HEARD THE PINGING AGAIN BUT THE PINGING WAS NOT THERE ON ACCELERATION. AFTER DRIVING ALMOST TOTAL OF 400 MILES THAT DAY, I STOPPED BY THE GAS STATION TO PUT GAS IN, AFTER PUTTING GAS IN ABOUT 2-3 MILES FROM HOME, THE SPARK PLUG, COIL SHOT OUT OF THE HEAD - WENT HOME TO CHECK - JUST TO MY SHOCK FOUND NO THREADS IN THE HEAD. I ALSO HAD A FRIEND THAT THIS HAPPENED TO SO I WAS THINKING IT WAS JUST A ONE TIME INCIDENT BUT IT ALSO HAPPENED TO ME. I WILL HAVE TO FIND OUT WHAT FORD STATES WHEN I TAKE IT IN AND HOW MUCH IT WILL COST. *JB
