One thread is enough mate,

Engine in repair for that one. Not an "easy" task due to location but 100% doable.

My concern would be the condition of the other welsh plugs. What coolant are you using?

Are you engine earth straps connected properly?

Off Topic and noob question but aren't they called Welch Plugs?

Not in Wales!

Orroit me bovver

What a PITA of a job. Leave it to the professionals.

Is this a common problem with the newer generations of Ford's I6? E series yes but I've never heard of a B series or FG having this issue before. Usually something else goes first lol
