Consumer Description

V-10 TRITON. I STARTED HEARING A TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. I HAD TAKEN IT TO SHOP FOR UNRELATED WORK AND THEY DID NOT THINK IT UNUSUAL. ON 1/8/09, I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THEN IT STARTED TO SOUND LIKE AN EXHAUST LEAK COMING FROM THE ENGINE. AS THE ENGINE SEEMED TO OTHERWISE RUN OK, I DROVE IT TO A FORD DEALER IN SNOHOMISH WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A SPARK PLUG EJECTED FROM THE #4 CYLINDER. THE PLUGS HAVE NEVER BEEN CHANGED, ORIGINALLY INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY. *TR
