Description of the problem | I was driving on the freeway when a pop and loud "flapping" sound was heard. I thought i had blown a tire. The truck lost a good amount of power and was shaking while continuing to make the "flapping" sound. After taking it in, it turns out it was a blown spark plug that shot out of the engine, damaging the block, plug, and coil. The cost was $630 to fix it. |
