Auto body repair & detailing: spark plug wire repair, ford crown victoria, spark plug wires


Question
how do you replace the spark plug wires that were taken out and they have no numbers or indication of where they should go?  do you just have to buy new ones?  someone ripped the ones in our 1996 ford crown victoria out, out of spite and now we can't put them back, can you help?

Answer
I do body work, not mechanic work but I'll try to help anyway. The wires go on in a certain firing order, which I don't know what yours is, but I'm sure you can find out by calling a mechanic or looking further on the Internet. Tell them the year, make and motor you have and it should be easy. If someone just yanked them out, they are probably junk anyway. If you go to the parts store to buy new wires, ask the counter man for help. Autozone and Advance stores should be able to help or the Autozone web site.
