Well got into my stang this morning and started it up, drove for just about one minute, heard a loud pop looked under the hood saw my coil pack and spark plug blew out of the head.... FAIL Looks like its time for some ported heads.
I showed this to a buddy w/ an ' 01 GT- is this common ?
And, can you do the repair ( if needed ) w/ the head on the car ? It looks like you could - ?
Aluminum heads sometimes scare me - I know when we did a tune up session on my buddy's Land Cruiser & mine ( aluminum head straight 6 cylinder ) I was very careful pulling the plugs - read that sloooooooooooooooooooowly ! with the engine cold, and we used plenty of never seize on the plugs going back in.
Happened to my on an 01. Happened out of nowhere. I fixed it with a 11.99 Murrays Heli-Coil from the HELP! rack. Lasted the rest of the time I kept the car and I sold it....with no problems.
