Hi, welcome to FixYa.com my name is Shawn and I will be answering your question.

You may need to remove the air cleaner or dog house to gain access. Identify the faulty cylinder.
They have an individual coil for every plug on this engine. Do you have a check engine light on if so if you retrieve the code it should be a P030X misfire code the X being a number between 1 and 8 identifying the cylinder that is misfiring. #1 being the passenger side front - #4 passenger rear #5 driver front #8 driver rear. They go in order 1-4 passenger side 5-8 driver side. Remove the coil it is a 7mm bolt and pull it out.


I hope my assistance helped you and resolved your concern, if you need further assistance please ask.

My ford econoline 1997 e250 has intermittent misses at idle and acceleration cruising speeds

One of the coil packs are starting to go out. One way you can pin point it is to buy one coil pack and replace one. If it still misses keep moving the spare one to the next coil pack until you find it. If you take it somewhere to be fixed it will run about $275 for each coil pack and up from the dealer. If you do it yourself and some time cost will be $70 for a coil pack. I know cause I just went through the problem at 120,000 miles.
