    I have a 2000 ford expedition, this is the second time a spark plug has blown out of the cylinder, i did some searching and found thousands of other people with the same problem, the last one was a ways from home and i drove it home, just found out that the car could have caught fire. It's time ford did something about this potentially dangerous problem and i hope you can help. Thanks john bendik *tr
