I have a 2002 Explorer XLT v8, bought new. Less than 70,000 miles on it. Mostly no problems. A couple years ago it started randomly missing. Asked dealer twice to check , they said could find no problem.
I started putting Chevron's Techron in the gas - this pretty much took care of the missing.
Recently I decided to do something about the missing more permanant.
I bought an Actron Auto Scanner Plus. It came up with "cylinder 6 missfire". The fix is usually to replace the ignition coil. Code P0306.
Is this something I can do? I looked with a flashlight, can't locate the spark plugs. I replaced all kinds of things in the ignition systom on a 93 Crown Vic - no problem. Don't like the way cars have changed over the years, but what can you do?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks, WLW
