How do i change spark plugs on a 2001 lincoln ls v6

check coolant level -oil level and condition if milky --but water in spark plug holes is an indication of blown head gasket --cracked head--block or intake

Hi Danny,I have a 2004 Lincoln LS, 3.0 haven't had that problem so far,have 125.000 miles on it.Here's a video I found on your sensor,a lot of things are put on our engines that are hard to get to,like the spark plugs. Lincoln ls 2001 V6 3 0 temperature sensors YouTube

The spark plugs in the v6 can become an involved job as the upper intake manifold. The LS uses a Coil on Plug (COP) ignition system, meaning that the spark plugs are located under the ignition coil

V6
1,2,3
4,5,6

V8
1,2,3,4
5,6,7,8

Front to back

Spark plugs don't misfire

COP Ignition Coils fail

My car is a 2003 ls V6 keeps getting a misfire and no acceleration when pressing the gas. I've done changed the map sensor, new throttle body, coul packs and spark plugs 3 times and just recently re changed them once again and noticed the spark plug holes were completely filled with water. Anyone with possible answers would be helpful

The LS and Ford T-Bird -only.
Only Ford 3.9 lt V8
Don't know on the V6

there is a flat plate on top of the valve covers you need to remove then remove each coil the plugs are under the coils

How are the rear brake rotors and calipers. If you do not take them apart twice a year and clean up rust, lube certain parts, the pads will drag. Also if your caliper is from 2001 it may be all rust inside,especially if you do not change/flushing your brake fluid every two years. I also have a 2004 LS and 45 years experience with this and never a problem with brakes on any veh from 1962 thru 2009. It is all about neglect and lack of knowledge ,not to be hurtfull here.

If the car is missfireing, don't try to patch it one plug at a time. go ahead and replace them all at once. It will save you 5 more cylenders to hunt later.

1. check exhaust system for obstructions ie: clogged catalytic converters,plugged mufflers
2. check ignition timing
