I%26#039;ve checked the coil pack, plugs , and wires so it must be the fuel injector|||It%26#039;s easy if you know what you are doing|||No, changing an injector isn%26#039;t difficult. Finding out that it didn%26#039;t fix the problem is.Have you done a compression test? If your fuel/air mixture is being blown out of an open valve on the compression stroke, you%26#039;ll trigger a misfire code. Same if the intake or head gasket is compromised.|||well i have a 1997 sho and i posted a question in here like a week ago and got a good answer my car had a miss fire on the 6 cylinder it was the ignition coil $118 the old one looked pretty good a few mechanics told me it wasnt that but i had wasted alot of money on it and i put it on myself and fixed. the thing is yours has the 6 coil pack i dont know if you can buy them sepratley and check it like that go to autozone and buy the pack and if its not it just return it say you never even put it on the car just make sure you clean it if it gets dirty. I have the1997 Taurus SHO It has a v8 and the ignition coils are sold individually. I think you can buy the rubber things individually for your car i think or just try that thing i told you with autozone. OH and if you do go to autozone tell them to give you the card if you buy over $20 dollars and when you return the part you still keep the card thats what i always do. Just dont loose your recipt.|||Nope, not hard at all. Just run it down to the mechanic and let a professional do. That%26#039;s why they go to school.|||it%26#039;s not too dificult to change, just get diagrams from the dealer and you will be in good shape. But it sounds like it might not be you injector-check your timing and spark and wire before you go any further if you have not already-goodluck=alex|||buy a haynes manual for your car they%26#039;re about 20 bucks but very worth the investment can tell you how to pretty much take you car completely apart you can find it at any auto store|||Could actually be a lot of things. But changing a fuel injector isnt that tough. Mostly just make sure the batter is disconnected and the pressure in the fuel rail has been relieved. To do so, bleed from the schrader valve on the rail. Then unbolt, diconnect the injector electrical connection and pull out, it may be tough since the oring has been sitting there for awhile.|||you are quite fortunate that it is cylinder #4.
Since that is the right hand side of the car and closest to the front. You will need a torx bit to take out the 2 fuel rail retaining bolts. It is still best that you try a compression test first though and a block leakage test.(check for combustion gasses in the radiator)
14 years in Ford dealers and Injector problems on that car are pretty rare. Head gasket problems on that car are, however, quite common.
good luck!
