What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

View attachment 475997View attachment 475998View attachment 475999This is my second time I’ve changed the spark plugs, I’m on an interval of every 15,000 miles. I’m sitting at 23k miles now. Not much difference from the first time I changed them to this go around. I watched Johnny Pythons video, and it helped tremendously, especially the part about blowing out the cylinder, however, I didn’t feel confident to do this after removing the spark plug so I blew out the cylinder before we moving the old spark plug. There was some debris that came up that I’m certain what it ended up in the engine had I not done that! Aside from getting the tools ready and looking at the video, it took me about an hour.

Can you post a link to the video. I am due for a change

The threaded area looks very dark, I haven't seen anything near that dark, I've changed mine several times.

I've been changing mine out right around the 20K mark, going off what Winfield recommended

Theses are a couple of "older " examples, I'm at 143K now, but this is typical for what I'm seeing

I like how you keep the old ones. Great idea.
