  • 4. With the retaining bolt removed, you will now need to unplug the coil pack from the wire harness. After unplugging the coil pack firmly pull the unit out of its resting place. Removing some of the coil packs may require that you also unplug or move other items to gain access. Be sure to remember what has been unplugged and return everything to its home once the new coil has been installed.

1. Locating the factory coil packs on your engine is the first step in installing the new S.O.S. coils. The coil packs are going to be found in the cylinder head under the fuel rail, assorted wire looms, and random hoses tucked away where some engineer never thought you would look for them. It is best to start with the most difficult-to-reach first, which will be the coil packs on the rear-most cylinders. 2. Before removing the factory coil packs, it is a good idea to clear away any debris such as sand, dirt, leaves, and anything else that could drop into the spark plug holes. A good way to do this is by simply blowing the areas around the coil packs clear with your trusty air compressor. 3. Once you have located all the coil packs and cleaned the area around them it is time to remove the factory coil packs from the truck. Using the necessary arrangement of sockets and extensions, gently remove the retaining bolt from each coil pack. 4.

Installation of the new S.O.S. coil packs is a snap once the factory unit is removed; simply reverse the steps. Place the coil pack in the plug hole, snap on the wire harness, and gently tighten the retaining bolt. 6. One thing you will notice while removing the old coil packs is that some of them may want to separate. Don't fret; this is normal. The coil packs used on your Ford engine are a three piece design with a coil, electrode wire, and a boot. After many miles of use the rubber boot that seals the plug hole can wedge its self in causing the pack to come apart when you pull it out. If this happens simply take it out one piece at a time and reassemble them once they are out, you didn't hurt anything.
