Consumer Description

HAD JUST PULLED OUT FROM INTERSECTION ONTO MAIN ROAD WHEN TRUCK DEVELOPED A SEVERE MISFIRE. I PULLED OVER IMMEDIATELY AND UPON INSPECTION FOUND THE THIRD SPARK PLUG ON THE RIGHT SIDE HAD BLOWN OUT OF THE HOLE. WE TOOK IT TO A GARAGE LESS THAN A BLOCK AWAY AND THEY WERE ABLE TO INSTALL A NEW PLUG AND COIL PACK BUT SOME OF THE THREADS IN THE HEAD HAD BEEN DAMAGED. WE WERE TOLD THEY DIDN'T KNOW HOW LONG IT WOULD HOLD. OLD PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A PROBLEM ON THE FORD TRITON ENGINES AND THINK A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED .THANK YOU *TR
