So Im starting to misfire when fully loaded with h20 and accessories. 350 Chevy 2016 Express. This happened once before a few thousand hours ago on the machine. I know I replaced the plugs, and I think 1 coil.

To do all coils and plugs..... over $2K. Dealer.

You PTO guys go through plugs and coils too occasionally?

Got it done. All new wires, all new plugs, and 2 coils replaced. cost about $1150 for that at the dealer. $560 labor and a $50 tip since they diagnosed, set up appointment, did the job, no glitches or side stories of how hard it is to find help and parts. Next time I can do this in the winter in my garage.

I’m about to do plugs and wires on the 6.0 in my old butler. It only has 58000 miles but I think it can’t hurt.

Oh those videos only show the easy plugs , wires and coil packs to replace. The front two on both sides are the bitch. That and when you are right handed and have to bend and squeeze all around the cabin to try and do it. There are some vids that show you must go thru the wheelwell to get to the front two. And you have to take off the front tire.

That’s really not that big of a deal Jimmy. I’m sure it was tough on your wife but Justin can handle taking off a tire and a shroud.

Justin could drop the motor and replace it before Jimney could finish replace the plugs and coils.. :rockon:
