2 valve heads up to 2003 will blow them out . Overtightend or not . Have seen virgins blow them . poor casting design /not enough threads . Couple different style inserts avail . I have standard and an "oversize" that will take care of them if they blow insert out,,and I have seen dozen or so of those in the shop. Usually back cylinders on pass side that blow . kills the coil pack also when they blow. $60-100 for coil . The 2003 and up 3 valve engines break plugs off . They are a pain. sommetimes I luck out , more often then not end up breaking 6 out of 8. Requires special tool to push part of plug down and then nother tool threads itself into plug shell allowing it to be pulled out with yet another tool . I have tried every which way , soaking , overnight , doing them hot, cold , impact , you name it ,,they will still break . Figure 4 hr job on 5.4 . Folks fall over when you tell them what it cost to change plugs on them .
