If it was installed properly, it is the threads in the head and they need to be repaired or the head replaced.
This can also be repaired by installing a TIME-SERT found on the website link below the answer. (TIME-SERT specializes in thread repair related problems.)
In addition to replacement spark plugs blowing out, there has been many original Ford spark plugs that have blown out that were in the engine when the vehicles were new. I don't believe that the spark plugs were installed incorrectly from the factory. I know that Ford has had a problem with spark plugs blowing out of their 4.6, 5.4 and 6.8 Triton engines, I think it is a design issue (4 aluminum threads holding the plugs). The heads are aluminum as well as the spark plug threads. The dealers want to replace the heads, although there is a way to repair them and make the threads even stronger, see the tech article on Ford Spark Plug Blow-out at DenLors. The repair inserts in this tech article is a thick repair insert that can be used when thin repair inserts have failed. The outside diameter measurement of the Calvan 389-100 thread insert is .73" which is a much beefier repair insert than competing brands. And the 389-100 has the correct taper, to seal the compression properly and the same part number spark plugs are used. Why risk using a thin wire insert like the guy that has his van all torn apart in the YouTube Video, when a superior repair kit is available that can be used to install much more substantial repair inserts. And a word of caution, if replacing the cylinder heads with rebuilt ones... You could be purchasing a rebuilt head with an inferior thin wire insert so be cautious if that's the route you choose.
Actually, spark plugs have and continue to blow (explode) out of the aluminum heads even when the plugs were installed new at the Ford factory. Additionally, inserts are prone to blowing (exploding) out the aluminum head too. Go to YouTube and search "FORD TRITON BLOWN SPARK PLUGS" and see a video of a Triton having blown it's second plug (an insert that didn't hold) and also "Google" a search for blown plugs (or ejected plugs) Ford Triton.
On one ocassion, a Ford Triton caught on fire when the spark plug blew out of the aluminum head, ruptured a fuel rail just above it (the plug was still sparking at the time of the ejection) and the truck was completely lost in the resulting fire. This particular event occurred in a F150 truck, having the original factory installed spark plugs.
Some evidence also suggests that the failure rate is more excessive at spark plugs located on the rear of the engine and problematic on the right rear passenger side. Some speculation also reveals that the ejection rate is higher during warm summer seasons than during winter.
Possibly, adding a ram air duct from the front of the vehicle to the rear of the engine (in the area of the rear spark plugs) may help address this issue, but this seems to be a band-aid approach to a faulty designed aluminum head, allowing only 4 threads to hold the spark plug inside the spark plug boss.
Yes there are sealers out there that can be used to seal or repair the gasket
In most engines, yes only if the crank is not damaged and measures correctly.
There is a third, 10mm bolt on the bottom of the coil pack. It is very difficult to reach without a small ratchet set or a flexhead wrench. When replacing the coil pack, many Miata owners have mounted it with just the two main bolts and skipped replacing the small 10mm bolt at the back without ill effects.
I don't know that they really need to be replaced unless they are damaged in some way. They should be fine indefinitely if you take good care of them.
Without knowing the specific vehicle, those sizes are close enough to probably interchange.
Without knowing what engine manufacture and size you are asking about it is impossible to answer as there are 5 different firing orders for 4 cylinder engines.
No it can't. The compressor breaks internally and that is why it locks up
No - this must be benched and rebuilt. We're not talking about a little leak that can be repaired with duct tape.
It is used to replace valve seals on many automotive engines without removing the cylinder head from the block.
Because it cuts down the noise of the fuel exploding in the cylinder ! Without silencers, the noise generated from vehicle engines would be horrendous !
Without knowing the year and engine size, I cannot answer this question. Chrysler makes more than one 4 cylinder. They have even used Mitsubishi engines in the Caravan.
Ok, being a twin cylinder there are two, up high on the backside (rear) of each head/cylinder. We can't tell you what carbs were on the bike without knowing the exact model you are referring to - the KZ750 came in both two- and four-cylinder engines.
You never replace a piston without replacing the cylinder too, as they're a matched set. The ones you want are for the 1600 cc engine.
Get it repaired. Buy a replacement. Do without.
Most single cylinder engines will not run with out a flywheel. Once you have a flywheel large enough to allow the engine to start and run then increasing the size and mass will help smooth the operation.
The fuel pressure regulator has one bolt holding it in place.l
You could leave a chicken without replacing its food for...2 days and a half.!!!!!!!!!! from:Karebare123_hey123
