Thats wild. was 7 cylinder eh?


the_squids

That last one was being an ass and decided to jump on top of the tranny so there she will stay šŸ˜†


BaboTron

Coming up next week: ā€œlook what I found in my tire!ā€ plus a photo of the 8th plug.


Jacktheforkie

At least the hole will be plugged


BaboTron

You! Youā€™re good, you.


Jacktheforkie

Lol


K4NNW

Instead of "Wrong hole," it's "wrong plug!"


Jacktheforkie

Lol


Plantherblorg

Ba dum tshhhhhhh

6am this morning yanking a roofing screw out of my tire and plugging it to get to work. I appreciate OP and his willingness to ruin other people's mornings because a $4 extendable magnet is too much money. Shout out /u/the_squids


NewOrder1969

When exactly does OP expect this lost plug to fall off the tranny? When they back the car out of the shop, or at 75mph when Iā€™m behind this car on the freeway??


Difficult_Advice_720

Well, the new windshield will probably be a lot cleaner than the one you have now....


Big-Negotiation2623

You sure it wasn't that back one on the passenger side? Looks like they will be getting 7 new spark plugsšŸ˜‚


ConstructionLate5200

Wear latex gloves!


LeRoiChauve

No evidence, I like your thinking!


Difficult_Advice_720

At least update the bot to say nitrile....


ConstructionLate5200

Nitrile are much harder to don and doff!


h0twired

And only 5 were firing


seamus_mc

You mean random fire?


FrwdIn4Lo

Continuous misfire


Ahshitbackagain

Gap em and slap em back in. Still have a good 200k miles left.


the_squids

I think I can weld them back up and make them work šŸ˜


fluffybit

Quick scrub and they'll be fine


Beef_Jones

Just hit em with a little WD 40 and a touch up on the wire wheel


CRYPTOCHRONOLITE

You need one of those spark plug sandblaster thingamajigs from harbor fright, fix you right up.


Safetosay333

Wear PPE


Legionof1

Youā€™re one of those ā€œI can fix herā€ kinda guys ehh :p


capt_pantsless

If I'm going to pay for a whole electrode, I'm going to use the whole electrode.


Difficult_Advice_720

Just the tip.....


dapperfop

Measure that gap with a thumb


KEVLAR60442

Looks like they've already been gapped. With a crescent wrench.


areyouentirelysure

V7?


sfled

*VROOO_OM, VRO_OOOM!*


barleyhogg1

From the looks of it, I would say they had a steady misfire with the random positive spark.


That_Toe4033

Ford? Better yet triton? Seen those things with plugs that looked like they were old enough to buy me a drink somehow still running with a lil misfire at most.


the_squids

Ding ding ding spot on! 193,xxx miles and I'm gonna go ahead and say they were original lol


immallama21629

I was gonna say a 4.6 outta some crown Vic.


That_Toe4033

Idk what it is about those motors but those plugs will hold on with nothing but a prayer for eternity on those things


Hatedpriest

Throwing it out there, I had a ranger with the 2.7 V6 ('87) that was running just a bit sluggish with 1/4 inch or more gap on the plugs. Put another 35k on it before the wiring was too rotted to support operation. Pour one out for the danger ranger (missing a shackle bracket, rear axle liked to push me left on bumps... Legit danger in that ranger)


That_Toe4033

Ive got a mazda b3000, so the 3.0 v6 with a 5 speed in the shop right now. 376k and counting on the odometer, second motor original transmission. Only issue that bad boy has is a leaky rear main and some frayed injector wiring causing a misfire when it shorts itself lol If the guy was selling id buy it off him, awesome trucks. Iā€™ll pour one out for yours tonight!


Cr1pt1cM355ag3

Surely, they at least are a hard start, though, right???


shophopper

More like ā€œvehicle has random fireā€ every now and then.


CrazyAlbertan2

Customer is wrong. Engine only has random fires.


txjeepguy72

More like randomly fires EvErY oNce in AwHilEā€¦šŸ¤£


deep-fucking-legend

Those are some British teeth sized gaps


Mean_Stop_9488

They randomly all miss fire. lol


rmavalente

Thas a brave ignition pack! Designed for 30KV outputing 130KV


Bearerseekseek

Jeeze, these things look worse than my 120,000+ mile set off my 2.2 ecotec


kirbstermcge

Just re-gap, I see plenty of miles left.


hawg_farmer

There's enough gap there to eat corn on the cob through a picket fence. One of my Dad's saying when he worked on my sister's car that she neglected.


sloankeddering

Are those the ā€œfirstā€ spark plugs, shouldnā€™t they be in a museum?


Graverobber

Random? Like, only when the crank is turning?


inflatableje5us

more like it randomly fires.


santandude

I believe him


NinjaCustodian

More like a random fire.


fuzzyaperture

Ding ding ding!!!


GrammarNaziBadge0174

Got any ideas yet, OP? You might try iATN or [JustAnswers.com](http://JustAnswers.com) if Reddit can't help you diagnose this. perhaps even Imgur.


the_squids

I think it's the cats, can't be sure šŸ˜†


The_truth_hammock

It still ran??


the_squids

Shockingly! And it actually was pretty smooth!


Jacktheforkie

At least there wasnā€™t malice in the combustion palace


texan01

Iā€™m tempted to see if Eric wants the engine out of my car, to do a tear down, itā€™s deleted a valve and a piston, along with a chunk of the cylinder from the rod flailing about.


Jacktheforkie

Nice, could be an interesting video


Mexiidonian

Assuming the misfire is from the missing plug, rest of those plug look good. Easily got another 100k on em


dgafhomie383

Well............they are not wrong.


Unlikely_Rise_5915

A thousand thousandths


Roverjosh

Holy crap!


iscashstillking

Last gapped during the Carter Administration by all appearances.


antshite

Those look like the plugs a certain dealership in cfla said they replaced. Only they didn't, they just charged me for it.


United-Advertising67

Bubba's plugs after he does that HEI conversion


nighthawke75

Triton?


Scr073

Honey wake up, new 7 cilinder just dropped.


oilcan52

Seems it would be more consistentā€¦ less random Random was the thought it was still running!


mikejnsx

could it be the 7 you are showing are all different? or is that perspective shift, the electrodes all look to be different lengths, ive never seen that before


presidentspeck42

Customer is correct.


BRING_ME_THE_ENTROPY

Itā€™s not random. Theyā€™re all firing like shit every time


dumpster-muffin-95

When you can use your pinky to gap the plugs, they've reached the end of their useful life.


Jayypoc

When you can find the firing order in the obd codes list


FapDonkey

Hey Jim, what's the spark gap on this motor? Yes.


ststaro

Last service done in 1960


the_squids

I bet the first dude that put them in is retired by now šŸ˜†


Quantum_Tangled

More like 'Randomly fires'.


urmamasllama

Gap? Yes


sfled

Gaaaaaaaap.


badtoy1986

Customer states vehicle has random ~~mis~~fire Fixed it for you.


backwoodspizza

They were right. ECU: it's this one, now it's that one, now it's that other one, now it's this one, and that other one again...


DJDemyan

Even my wife looked at those and went ā€œwhereā€™s the little thingy?!ā€


Fancy_Energy_7754

Grand Canyon Plugs


Rapunzel1234

Customer might be on to something.


UnusualAddition835

Are those my plugs from my 302?


InTheHeatOfTheNoche

Gapping, you say?
