Thank you Andy you did a amazing job explaining the entire job. The only thing missing was the torque spec. Even though you know by feel the information may help someone else from breaking the spark plug.
Very good job, I'm also a Lincoln owner ( '06 ) and willing to bet the coolant is coming from intake . These are notorious for leakage after extended service. I was fortunate enough that my intake was replaced about a year before I purchased. You explain things in a very clear manner which is much appreciated, also love the way you take time to wipe your engine bay down as you work. Clean cars are happy cars !
Thanks and same here. After a little research I'm thinking it may just be the intake gasket which is not too bad compared to a head gasket. Fingers crossed
Glad to hear! I bought a new crate SBC from Jegs a few months ago , motor has probably less than 4k, last week I heard what sounded like a faint knock coming from below. I was careful with the break in procedures . 36/36 warranty on it, but only if installed by a dealer? Install would have cost twice the price of the engine. I installed it myself, so now you know a viewer in AZ that is also crossing his fingers as well. 😀

I actually ended up having to replace the intake and just recently posted a video about that on this car
Water leaks on that rear coil through the above metal clip on cowl
Really clean looking car. I hope the wet plug issue is not serious.
