Hello, first how many miles do you have on this Lincoln? On that 4.6 L V8 engine they do have spark plugs but each plug has it's own spark coil located on a long rubber plug. You will see four little coils on each side of the engine. There will wires going in to the individual coils. There will be a bracket the holds the coils in place with a small 9 or 10 mm nut. Remove the nut, and gently pull on eac coil. There Hello, first how many miles do you have on this Lincoln? If you have over 120
thousand miles on this engine then it might need new spark plugs. On that 4.6 L

There a long rubber plug that fit in each spark hole. These rubber plugs are
about 4 1/2 to 5 inches long.
Before removing the plug use an air hose with 50 to 60 lbs of pressure to
blow each spark plug hole out which might have foreign object in the hole. Why,
if you remove the spark plugs, and there is foreign material in that plug hole.
Guess what, that stuff will fall into the combustion camber.
Then you will really have some problem. How fix if stuff fall into the
combustion camber.
Squirt small amount of oil in the combustion camber, unplug all the coils and
clear out there plug hole. Now remove all the spark plugs. Now, you can crank
the engine and will the little amount in that cylinder that has the junk in it.
The oil will wet the foreign debrie, and blow it out the spark plug hole. Then
use a clean rag with with some oil it with a long screw driver to clean that
spark plug hole Be careful that don't push the foreign material back into
the combustion camber. Do this several time with little amount of oil.
Now, you can install the new spark plugs. On the spark plugs threads use some
anti-shiz grease. Why squirt oil into the combustion camber? The oil is used
to seal the rings on the piston to increase the cylinder compression. Just a
small amount goes a long ways. GB...stewbison
