Still a relevant how-to video in 2023. Thanks for the excellent attention to detail. Plug clips and friction clips are so finicky. So, you thatking the time to show that is great. I just replaced the myford touch sync 2 digitalizer on my 2013 edge and the interior design is just as absurdly crammed together and running over itself as under the hood it seems. You've been a great help!

So I put a 4 1/2 inch in place of the 2 1/4 and stretched out the end with a punch, put the after market hose clamp on and tightened it up after installation. Worked perfect.

Thank you for this video, that hidden bolt for the upper intake plenum would have probably put me in the loony bin if it weren't for you ! I wonder how many good mechanics broke the eye off or broke the intake plenum trying to get it out without removing that bolt, I was having such anxiety thinking about changing those rear plugs, but your video showed it to be a bit complex but not that bad, at 65 years old and not rushing it took me three hours, engine now runs like silk, Thanks Again !

Awesome video and thank you. just replaced plugs on my 2013 edge 3.5. No need to gap OEM motorcraft plugs as they are right and claim non gap adjustable on box. after 102k miles my used plugs were gapping @ .60k trickiest part was that lower right side support bolt for intake. Does not appear to mate intake to block, just aids in support of far right side of intake I think. Yes, took your advice and replaced rear spring clamp on breather hose with round screw clamp. super helpful video.

Is there a reason behind this? Unplugging the main wiring harness scares me with the electrical system still connected.
