| Spark plug ejected from cylinder head of my 1999 ford e-150 5.4l engine. the threads were stripped and the dealer says $4000+ total repair. the fuel and air leaking into the engine compartment with a convenient ignition source, the spark plug, fortunately did not lead to a fire but it's potentially enormous. after internet searching, this seems to be a very common problem. although the ford dealer does not acknowledge this. *la | |||

| The vehicle is an electrical nightmare . the main wiring harness chaffed and shorted out within a few days of service . the lift system has an intermittant problem , frequently will blow resetable breaker .when it rains the system gets wet because the door doesnt close properly,when the floor was dropped for the modifications it was not done properly. because of this the door leaks ,causes the electrical components to get wet . the van for sale , the adaptive equipment will be removed first though , i assure you ! i have been locked out and stuck inside due to the side door opening failures (multiple ).please feel free to call me , our legal expert would be glad to give you the official report of problems . the van is for sale,but it will be a while . the world of independence company did the best they could , but they should not do any more ada modifications . charles scholl 321-452-0667 | |||
