Hi

I have just heard this: -

CRITICAL ALERT: Ford Fiesta (1999 on)
Spark plugs can rust into head on Endura 1.3 if left in more than
10,000 miles or overtightened; easily done due to taper
threads. Rectification involves head removal and drilling out.

Can someone tell me how I should look for this and what preventive
measures, if any, can be taken to ensure this does not happen. Also,
is there anything I can do myself rather than take it to a Ford dealer
or would you recommend the latter?

Thanks
