2001 Lincoln Town Car V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 52k miles

I have a bad #6 cyclinder plug. After opening the hood I was like where are the plugs and what do I have to do to get to them. Can you please give me idea where to start with this. Do I have to change all the plugs or can I just change the #6 cylinder plug? I'm a single mom and can't afford the dealer.

You have a coil on plug system....yes you can change one if you want, but if it's time 100,000 miles yet? it's penny wise and pound foolish to do just one. Can also be the coil or injector!

Thank you for your response, I will get busy soon. I will replace the 1 plug for now and see if that solves my problem (service engin soon light) if so, then I'll do all plugs. This car only has 54k on it, I hope that this is all it is.

Thanks again
