Hmmm...looks like someone didn't do his plug research
This scenerio has been documented before. Try some Autolites or Motorcrafts.
Good luck!

LOL!
Now you gotta do it all over again.

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't grease my Magnecores when I put them on 2K ago...and I ruined one of the wires two weekends ago when I changed my plugs because of this.
So...I gotta redo part of the labor all over again, too.

I went to the Ford place for an oil change and while i was there i told them to change the plugs. I had bought the Bosh 4 (pieces of crap) and they laughed at me for 5 minutes. They told me the ones from factory coudn't be beat.
