I doubt it has anything to do with whether he's a citizen or not. Me thinks that one of his 'alleged' parents are not really so. Maybe he's an illegitimate child and one of his parents are just step-parents. He hides the Birth Certificate to avoid embarrassment.

Yeah - especially if you're a big *** bank on Wall Street, D.C., or Chicago.

But not if you're a farmer from drought stricken Klamath or a storm victim in Connecticut.

Yup, I'm glad he saved me from me! I scare myself sometimes

Whats this crap he saved the taxpayers 100mil on the budget??? that's like me finding a $10 dollar bill on the street!

and while I'm at it,

Did you hear where the Federal gov't is refusing to pay the municipalities water bills? According to the DC water folks, the feds refuse to pay $3 million in storm water fees that is owed them for processing the run off water from their properties. The Feds call it a tax, and the Feds don't pay taxes!

I'm thinking about changing mine before it gets too many more miles on it, but I'm nervous from all of the bad stories I've heard. Might do it before summer gets here and it starts getting driven more. I think mine was built in July 07 too.

LOL It's Bush's/Paulson's emergency TARP program bringing interest earnings to the Treasury. In significant amounts.

Sooner you do it (before carbon builds up too much) and change to the 1 piece, the better off you'll be. You'll be done for good!

Only one difference Lee, I drive mine every day, and my Odometer just turned 57K. I also noticed my power steering fluid is low again too. Filled it up last month and it's back down to the minimum line!
what's with that and no tell tale leakage down below either.

That's not a good thing. I read something about the power steering fluid before, but I can't remember what it was. Mine was low once and I topped it off, but I think I used the wrong kind. Now I'll never be able to get what I put in back out. But if I remember right there is an issue with a percentage of power steering pumps. Maybe that's why they went to the EPAS too.

That's about when I changed mine. You'll be fine. Just get a can of PB Blaster and get to it.

How bad did they look when you took them out? Much build up on them?

Nope. They looked fine. I think I've got pics in photobucket.


The scary parts was breaking them loose. But they did and they all came out nice and easy.


I also got some copper anti-seize to put them back in with. Ford wanted the threads and most of the shank except the electrode with a coat of anti-seize on it. I was also running a tune that I think was a little rich, and they were still clean.

Forget it. I don't have pics of the stock plugs I guess. These are the HTO's after being in the car for about 2,000 miles.

Yup. That's it. I've got a hard copy in my shop. I was going to do my old truck, but now I don't have to. But I guess I should do the same to the wifes car.

2007 Expedition 5.4L with about 34,000 miles.
