Will these fit my 2013 Ford Explorer 3.5L?

Yes. The listing covers the 2013-2019 Explorer 3.5L V6, including the turbocharged version. Confirm your engine is the 3.5L V6, not the 3.5L non-turbo or 2.3L four-cylinder.

They are specified at a 0.032 in gap, which matches the Ford 3.5L V6 spec. Check each plug with a gap gauge before installing, since handling in shipping can close a gap.

How do they compare with Motorcraft plugs?

They use the same iridium-tip design and cross-reference OEM numbers like 97177 and LTR6CI-8. Motorcraft has a longer service history in these engines; these are a lower-cost alternative with a one-year warranty.

How often should I change them?

Ford's interval for iridium plugs in the 3.5L V6 is typically around 100,000 miles. Turbo EcoBoost engines work the plugs harder, so some owners change them sooner.

Six spark plugs. No tools, gap gauge or torque specification are included, so have a 5/8 in spark plug socket and a torque wrench ready.

Do I need to gap them myself?

Usually not, but verify. Use a wire-style gap gauge and adjust carefully; iridium tips are fragile and should not be pried with a coin-style gauge.

Our take on the A-Premium Iridium Platinum Spark Plugs Pack of 6

A six-pack of iridium-tipped, platinum-core spark plugs pre-gapped to 0.032 inches for Ford and Lincoln 3.5L V6 engines, including the twin-turbo EcoBoost. The iridium center electrode resists wear better than copper or plain platinum plugs, so the gap holds longer between changes. They cross-reference common OEM numbers such as 97177, LTR6CI-8 and BL3E-12405-CA, which makes them a direct-fit alternative to Motorcraft plugs for these engines. They suit owners doing a scheduled tune-up at home; brand-name iridium plugs cost more but carry a longer track record.
