Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEEDS IN A 2001 F-250 SD 5.4 LITER, SLOWED TO MAKE A STOP AND THEN PROCEEDED ON AND THERE WAS A LOUD POP AND THE TRUCK STARTED RUNNING ROUGH AND MAKING A LOT OF NOISE FROM UNDER THE HOOD. IT TURNED OUT THAT A SPARK PLUG HAD BLOWN OUT OF THE CYLINDER WALL CAUSING THE NOISE AND ROUGH RUNNING. THESE PLUGS HAD JUST BEE REPLACED ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO. THE TRUCK HAD TO BE TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP ALMOST 100 MILES TO BE REPAIRED. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND FROM MY MECHANIC THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE. *TR
