35 is there twice :D

The only ones that don't apply to me are:

18,19,20 b/c I don't have T/C.
31 b/c I'm under 21
35....yet
38, 49, and 65 b/c I don't have a 5.0. And besides, the number 1?, or maybe 4? spark plug on the 4.6 is a real PITA if you don't take off the throttle body/plenum

17, 53, 72 really hit the nail on the head
