How many spark plugs are in a 5.0 F-150?

I’ve got a 2015 F-150 with the 5.0-L V8 engine and it is long overdue for a tune-up. I want to do it on my own, but I don’t have a ton of time, so I’m trying to gather any materials I might need first. How many spark plugs do 5.0-L F-150s need?

Working on your F-150 at home is a great way to save on expenses for your pick-up truck! There are eight spark plugs in an F-150 with the 5.0-L engine, so that’s how many as you should need to finish servicing your truck!

An eight-pack of replacement spark plugs for the Ford F-150 typically cost around $80 to $90. You’ll typically want to replace your truck’s spark plugs every 30,000 miles or so—regardless of the make/model—so it may be worth making a note or reminder for yourself when they’re due for another tune-up.

Remember, keeping up with a routine maintenance schedule is an important part of caring for your vehicle—and it could help you avoid expensive car repairs later on!
