I've only just now got caught up with all the facts about these engines and I didn't know about the blow out problem until tonight. Just wondering if it's an actual thing or just an overblown issue such as DSMs and crankwalk...
I've read to torque them accurately while the engine is only a little warm and to also only use motorcraft plugs and it wont be an issue. But it still sounds kind of annoying, like such a bizarre thing to happen. Of all the cars I've had they never had anything like this lol. I'm used to tightening plugs in until snug and they stay there perfectly fine forever. None risked permanent cyl head damage from a fricken spark plug.
I'll bet though... it's neglectful owners that cause most of these blow outs. I may be wrong though feel free to correct me
