Hi, I just replaced the spark plugs on my 2004 Ford Expedition with the 5.4 L engine. I'm quite a beginner and this is the first time I've done it, but the engine runs fine so I think I did it OK. I had a hard time finding the spark plugs because they are hidden in the engine block under a rubber boot, under the ignition coils. Each spark plug has its own little "coil on plug" ignition coil. But the ignition coils were easy to remove. You squeeze the electrical connector and disconnect the wires going to the individual ignition coil. Then you remove the one bolt that holds the ignition coil in place. Then you gently pull the coil up (you may have to pull it at an angle because the fuel rail is in the way) to disconnect it from the spark plug, and it will come out with the rubber boot attached. The rubber boot keeps debris from falliing into the well where the spark plug is located.

I am no mechanic but i just had my ignition coils changed on my ford expedition and there are 8 it was expensive to fix .
How do you replace the ignition switch on a 2000 ford expedition?
remove the ignition coils on the intake and they are underneath it. your vehicle has distributorless ignition, therfore there aren't any spark plug wires, instead it has individual ignition coils with the spark plugs directly underneath them.
On a 2001 Ford Expedition : Both the 4.6 and 5.4 have the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
On a 2004 Ford Expedition : Both the 4.6 and 5.4 litre V8 engines have the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P.) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
Your 2001 Ford Expedition has the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system so there are ( 8 ) individual coils
On a 1999 Ford Expedition : There is no distributor cap The 4.6 has the ( EDIS / Electronic Distributorless Ignition System ) with ( 2 ) coils and ( 8 ) spark plug wires The 5.4 has the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
Yes , the 2007 Ford Expedition engine has the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
On a 1997 Ford Expedition : There is no distributor If you have the 4.6 liter V8 engine you have the Electronic Distributorless Ignition System ( EDIS ) with ( 2 coils ) and spark plug wires and If you have the 5.4 liter V8 engine , it has the Coil On Plug ( C.O.P. ) ignition system with ( 8 ) individual coils
take off the distributor cap see what you find.
I just got quoted $1,200 for 6 coils & plugs on the 2005 Escape. Ugh.
