The coil for that cylinder is probably bad. replace it.

If you have a coil pack, they run around 60 dollars and are easy to replace. I recommend replacing the sparkplug wires also when replacing the coil pack I have had a bad coil pack fry my wires. Go with motorcraft spark plugs also. The engine was designed for them and some of the other plugs run too hot

Your car wont start and a spanner is showing?

The service engine light (spanner) is indicating that the computer has detected a "fault". Use an engine diagnostic scanner to find out what the computer has detected. My guess is, if you repair whatever the computer has detected, the problem will go away.


Why is the service engine soon light on in your 1997 thunderbird?

A malfunction with the engines emission control system has been detected and requires service / repair . If the light stays on , and the problem doesn't correct itself after using the vehicle a few times , have it checked out . ( As long as the light isn't blinking , which indicates a engine cylinder misfire , and no other warning lights are on , and your engine temperature and oil pressure are O.K. etc. )
