Here are some more information for Plug Wires Ford:
Next to contact breaker, spark plug is probably the weakest part of the ignition system. It is mounted in the combustion chamber of the engine, where working conditions are- severe. During peak combustion conditions the temperature in the combustion chamber in a modern car engine may be around 2500 ºC and the pressure about 7 Mpa. Moreover a spark plug is also exposed to thermal and load cycling fatigue due to sudden changes in temperature and pressure-from the high temperature of burnt gas to the relatively low temperature of the air/fuel mixture and from the high pressure at the time of explosion of the air/fuel mixture to low pressure during induction. In addition, the spark plug has to endure high voltage, mechanical vibration and the corrosive atmosphere of combustion gages. A modern spark plug has an economical life of about 10,000-16,000 km.
Requirements
The requirements of a good sparking plug are:
1. Very high resistance to current leakage.
2. Continued maintenance of the proper gap under all conditions.
3. Gas tightness-Any leakage of hot gas will upset the normal steady state of the plug, causing such high temperatures to be reached that the insulator and the electrode disintegrate und full into the cylinder.
4. Resistance to corrosion-corrosion is detrimental because it increases gap length and thus raises the sparking potential required.
5. sufficient 'reach' into the combustion chamber-Reach is defined as the length of the thread portion that enters the cylinder. If a long-reach plug is fitted into a short-reach hole, combustion chamber space is reduced which increases the compression ratio, more heat is produced and the exposed edges of the threaded portion may be heated to incandescence' resulting in preignition. Moreover the protruding end of a long reach plug in a short reach hole may also damage the piston or valve. If a short-reach plug, on the other hand, is fitted into-a long reach hole the combustion-chamber space is increased, compression ratio is reduced and carbon is deposited, in the threads of the hole which makes difficult the fitting of a correct reach plug at a later date.
6. Electrode temperature must be maintained between certain limits. At higher temperature (850ºC or above) there is danger of preignition and also corrosion of electrodes. At temperatures lower than 300ºC, however, carbon or even oil deposits are formed causing the leakage of electricity to earth instead of sparking across the plug electrodes. The optimum temperature range is 500-800ºC.
Construction
The plug has three main Parts, the centre electrode, the ground electrode and the insulation separating them. Besides these, these are the body shell, the sealing ring and the gasket washer. The upper end of the centre electrode is connected to the spark plug terminal, where H.T. cable from the ignition coil in case of single cylinder engines (or from distributor in case of multicylinder engines) is connected. The lower end of the centre electrode projects beyond the insulator to form a gap with the ground electrode. The insulator is meant to fulfill the following functions :
(i) to insulate the centre electrode from body shell, thereby preventing the leakage of high voltage surge from leaking to earth within the shell.
(ii) to control the working temperature of the centre electrode by suitably adopting the thermal conductivity of the insulating material, its shape and the length of the heat path, while designing the spark plug for a given engine. The body shell serves to house the electrodes and the insulator. Gas-tight seal is necessary to prevent the hot gas from leaking between the insulator and the body shell and between the insulator and the centre electrode. Such seals may be of different types, e.g. solid ring, dry powder, metal powder fused into glass, etc. Besides above the hot gas from the combustion chamber may also leak between the plug and the cylinder head. To seal this flat ring gasket washer is commonly used. In some modern spark plugs, the centre electrode is made in two pieces. By doing so the designer can use different metals to suit best the different requirements of the upper piece which has to the connected to the h.t. cable and the lower piece which has to go into (he combustion chamber. In some spark plugs, centre electrode contains a built-in resistance in series with the electrode. This resistance reduces the number of high voltage surges accompanying the full voltage surge for the spark, thereby reducing the radio and television interference due to ignition system. The resistance also increases the plug life by cutting down peak current that would burn the electrodes. Such plugs are called resistor spark plugs and their life is about double the life of ordinary plugs.

Ford, Meridian Sign Mou on Ach Sandusky Plant Sale
Ford Motor Company and Meridian Automotive Systems have announced Monday in a company press release this week a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), outlining a framework for the sale of Automotive Components Holdings' lighting business and its Sandusky, Ohio plant. ACH has so far now sold one plant and signed MOUs related to eight additional plants during the past six months.
The primary product produced at the ACH Sandusky Plant is automotive lighting, including front, rear and signal lights. These products are found on several Ford vehicles from the Focus to the Expedition, and about 60 percent of Ford’s North American vehicle production.
The announcement, says Mark Fields, Ford’s president of The Americas, represents more progress with the company’s Way Forward plan, “The successful approach Ford is taking with our component operations – including selling or idling our ACH facilities – will help us achieve our commitment to reduce overall operating costs by $5 billion by the end of 2008.”
At the end of the first quarter the ACH fuel rail business was sold along with its El Jarudo subsidiary. Other ACH businesses currently in negotiations for final agreement and sale include glass, fascias and fuel tanks, climate control systems, propshafts, and power transfer units (PTU).
“The response from the marketplace has been better than expected,” said Al Ver, ACH CEO and COO and Ford Motor Company vice president. “We believe that is due, in large measure, to the significant improvement in the quality, on-time delivery and cost-effectiveness of our operations during the past year and a half.”
Automotive Components Holdings is a temporary company managed by Ford, established in October 2005 with former Visteon component operations. ACH’s mission is to ensure the flow of quality components and systems while preparing the ACH automotive component operations for sale or idling. The $4 billion company and its 12 plants are currently supported by about 12,000 full-time employees, mostly leased from Visteon or Ford.
Richard Newsted, Meridian’s president and CEO said, “Acquiring the Sandusky, Ohio facility is a logical extension of our engineering and manufacturing expertise in lighting.”
“We are excited about the opportunity to improve the long-term competitive position of this operation and expand our strengths and capabilities in lighting technology.”
The sale is contingent upon reaching a new and competitive agreement with the United Auto Workers.
Ford Motor Company, a global automotive industry leader based in Dearborn, Mich., manufactures or distributes automobiles in 200 markets across six continents. With about 260,000 employees and about 100 plants worldwide, the company’s core and affiliated automotive brands include Ford, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lincoln, Mercury, Volvo and Mazda (maker of top of the line Mazda spark plug wire). The company provides financial services through Ford Motor Credit Company. For more information regarding Ford’s products, please visit www.fordvehicles.com.

I have a 99 ford taurus 3.0L V6 OHV. I need help with the plug wires?
I know the firing order. I'm not sure if the length of each wire makes a difference, My Haynes manual does not help. I have 2 long wires, 2 medium length wires, and 1 short and another medium, where do each set of wires go? In other words, which cylinders get the long wires, which get the medium and which get the short and the other medium. Please help, Thanks
The easiest way to change the wires is to remove them, one at a time and then match that wire to the new wire, that way you can change the wire with the correct length wire.
If you have already removed the wires and don't know which one goes where, the safest assumption is that the longest wires go to the spark plugs furthest away from the coil pack, the medium go to the middle spark plugs and you can probably figure out the rest.
Just for your own edification: Cylinders 1-3 are back by the firewall and 4-6 are in front by the radiator.
