Hello Bob and or Ken,
I recently changed the plugs in my neighbors 2003 Ford Taurus, It ran fine for 2 days he then came back and said the car was missing and running rough at idle, I checked all 6 plugs and found nothing wrong, i.e checked gaps, checked wires for burns/swelling and looked for fouling, nothing, put it back together and it ran fine for another 2 days, he then took it to Ford who told him the plugs I used (BOSCH Platinums) did not run well in Fords and that he needed new plugs and wires( MOTORCRAFT), is this correct? Should I replace with Motorcraft or should I be looking in another direction, MAF maybe?
Thanks
