F-150 XLT 5.4L V8
When I returned to the truck, I turned the key to start it, then I heard a loud popping sound, like a gun shot. The engine became powerless. I had to have the truck towed to the Ford Service Department. I was told the problem was a spark plug blow out and I would have to have a helicoil repair of which there is no gaurantee of being a permanent fix , replace the cylinder head or replace the engine which would also repair the main crank shaft leak that was seen as a problem also. I'm opting to replace the engine which comes with a 100.000 mile warranty.
