JW1982 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I recommend to use NGK spark plugs for this type of engine. NGK has 2 different types of spark plugs for this engine: Standard Nickel spark plug TR5B-13 Premium iridium spark plug LTR5IX-11 The suffix of the spark plug type number stands for the preset spark plug gap. The standard Nickel spark plug has a preset gap of 1.3 mm and the premium iridium spark plug has a preset gap of 1.1 mm. Ford prescribes to set the spark plug gap for this engine to 1.2 mm. These spark plugs require a 16 mm socket. These spark plugs have a tapered seat design. To prevent the spark plugs from being overtightened it is highly recommended to install the spark plugs using a torque wrench and to torque the spark plugs to 16 Nm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
