Why don't you simply upload them on the m6g site, then post them directly from there? That's what I do and it always works fine. Let me know if you don't know how to do it so that I help.

I've done that more recently in the past, but I still have to download and reupload them. I just didn't have the extra time to do it yesterday, and like right now, I'm on my phone. I usually even limit my replies and responses on mobile because I don't like typing on the forum on this tiny 5.5" screen. Lol I really liked Tapatalk when it was available on here, but nevertheless, it's not coming back and that's a discussion for another day.

I am not a fan of the "hand tight" technique, anyone know the proper torque spec for the stock plugs? I have been doing 12lbs.

it tells you on the spark plug boxes. We usually do 22ft/lbs here

Spark plug torque specs:

Factory Motorcraft plugs are 12 lb. ft.

NGK 6510s are 7.2 - 14.5 lb. ft. source

Denso ITV22s are 14.75 - 22.13 lb. ft. source

Brisk RR14S & RR14YS are 7.2 - 14.5 lb. ft. source

sub'd for when I do this. Thanks!

Did this. Super easy! Thank you [MENTION=13694]Juben[/MENTION] for the clear instructions!

Just one correction on step 4: the coil pack bolts are not 10mm but 8mm. Unless this is something specific to the European models.

Question, which size of a spark plug socket do we need for the NGKs? 5/8s?

this is great. does anyone know if i buy the pregrapped from adam if itll be compatible with an ecoboost that had the ford performance tune/cai? would i have to get another tune?

I’m running plugs from Adam with the Ford performance Tune, better idle and performance getting ready to put in a new set. I haven’t had any issues and know several others running this combo with no issues.

I have the FP tune/CAI and the adam tune plugs !!

thank you!
