I have a 2001 ford expedition with approximately 130k miles. The spark plug in cylinder 4 blew out yesterday while my wife was driving down the highway. We discovered the cylinder head threads have been blown out also. I am unable to replace the spark plug without repair to the head. *tr

Ford 2001 expedition has a blown spark plug.

Electrical System · Fuel System, Gasoline · Unknown Or Other
Electrical: windshield leaking for a few years. First a small leak and did not think much about it. Now it seems to be greater leaks into the car when it rains- leading to electrical issues such as dash lights go out, blower stays on, fuel gauge does not read right. Radio sometimes will not work right and the lights go out. Fuel tank: issues from day one - floats did not work right, now gauge does not read right,…
