Description of the problem	Spark plugs failing. Ford say they should be changed even though they are rated for 100,000 miles. Cost starts at $300 and can go up to thousands of dollars. The fault is that ford installed spark plugs that can gaul or react with the al block. This means the plugs might break on removal leaving park of the spark plug in the block.
