Was it the 00's that had all the problems with blowing spark plugs out?

Not only the `00s- My neighbor has a `02GT, & he blew out #8. That was a $500 repair bill[&:]

RE: new and still learning

Welcome to the forums

I too have '00 GT auto but with w/74,000 miles. You have the 4r70W tranny I do believe. The only probs that I have ran into was with the a/c compressor clutch assembly, and idler pulley. They were pretty noisy, but my brother and I replaced them, so all is good now. I have full MAC exhaust with an intercooled procharger with the 10# pulley. So far I have about 6,000 miles on the supercharger and have not ran into any problems with my car. One day I will forge the bottom end, replace the plastic intake and up the boost[8D] I think you have got yourself a very nice, fun car to drive.
