Ford Crown Vic & P71 Spark Plugs

Описание: I give my Ford Crown Victoria police interceptor P71 a "tune up." The older models were definitely easier to change. My 2008 had 2 coil packs (the second one back on each side) that were difficult to remove due to the fuel rail and other obstruction, and the farthest one back on the passenger side required a creative swivel joint to remove and replace the plug.
