Why Ignition Coils Fail in Your 2001 Mercury Grand Marquis

 

There are a few reasons why the coil packs in your 2001 Grand Marquis. One very common reason is pressure washing the engine bay. Ignition coils and water do no get along. It's very easy to damage the ignition coils if you do not properly cover them up when cleaning. If you live in an area that is humid (most of the southern states) you may also experience a bad ignition coil sooner than someone who owns the exact same Mercury Grand Marquis in a dry state. Other elements like a bad valve cover gasket, or coolant leaking from a cracked intake manifold, or the heater hose (typically P0304, but can also be P0303 if coolant is spraying all over the place). When replacing the ignition coils in your Grand Marquis, also make sure to remove any debris that have gathered around the ignition coils. You don't want these falling down the spark plug wells can into your engine during the next spark plug change. Compressed air is the easiest way to do this, but you can also get a rag and clean out the area. The rag takes more time, but not everybody has a compressor, and this is free.
