Re: 2005-2008 Ford - Broken Spark Plugs

Thank you...

So really my big questions is... Do we think that 2.8hrs labor in Mitchell includes the additional time to extract these specific plugs, or is this the time if they weren't inherently flawed and therefore I should add like an extra 1.5hrs for the extra labor to take them out carefully.

Re: 2005-2008 Ford - Broken Spark Plugs

SO here's my question. Mitchell says 2.8HRS to do the plugs on an 04 Ford F150 5.4L. Does this time reflect the added time for this procedure? I don't expect that it does.

TIP: Naming Canned Jobs

I have been reading just about every post on this forum with regard to using Canned Jobs. I have been using CJ for non-vehicle specific services like LOF's and Trans Flushes/Services since the beginning. I however have not been using CJ for things like Timing Belts and CV Shafts cause I didn't see t...

Re: POLL: Your Forum Usage

this just goes to show you who reads thru the topics, and who really cares. I care. Hurtful... I would cry because my customers have removed my soul and fed it to me as nice little snack. I use the forum whenever I need it. And honestly, I find the search feature useless. Not necessarily because it...
