I'm saying it condescendingly, OP, you asked for info and got just that. now all your doing is trying to justify not buying OEM coil packs and that's fine, its your car. there is a lot of arguing and non agreement on a lot of things on this site but not once ever have I read anyone giving bad info to try and help someone that is truly wanting help. so go drive with your $100 coils and don't change your plugs. we will be here to help when one or both need changed. get the Lisle 65600 tool, my $.02. good luck

It would be interesting to find out who makes the Ford coil packs, because I'm guessing, just like sparkplugs, you'll get them much cheaper without the Ford box, just like the autolites are cheaper than the Motorcrafts, even though it's the same plug manufactured by autolite.
Borg Warner makes the transmission solenoid packs for the automatics and many of the other sensors for Ford. Bosch makes the O2 sensors for them.

I think my O2 sensors were Denso or NGK, I replaced them with Bosch, they weren't throwing a code but apparently they were bad because the car feels better now, plus they are dirt cheap.
