I'd suspect a bad spark plug at first. Which could be the GAP setting is wrong or the plug itself is bad. There can be other more expensive issues going on, but I'd start cheap and work up.
check your air idle control valve
I am guessing that this vehicle is the Marquis and not the Grand Marquis. I'm also guessing that it's a 6 cylinder engine. If I'm wrong, go to www.autozone.com and look under repair info, specifications, firing order for your specific vehicle. FIRING ORDER 1-4-2-5-3-6
It depends on what caused the misfire, and it depends on what you mean. If you are having constant misfires, then there is either something wrong with your ammo, or there is something wrong with the pistol. If you mean what is the proper procedure for clearing a misfire, then you keep the gun pointed in a safe direction and rack the slide to eject the bad round, or open the cylinder and eject it if it is a revolver.
You are likely in an antarctic region.
What size engine? 3100 motors are fairly common for fuel injectors that need professional cleaning. Ignition coil pack may be another source, coolant getting into the cylinder. When you pulled the plugs out which cylinder had the black carbon build up? That is your troubled area.
Need to know what's wrong with it. More info please.
The computer has detected a problem and there is a code available for you to read. That is the purpose of the light.
The engine , if it runs at all , will , of course , have misfires and may have a 'backfire' .
Possible key cylinder is bad, you have the wrong key, you have a very worn key are the first things that come to mind. Try another key. Try to pull clockwise or counter clockwise on the steering wheel and turning the key at the same time.
the turn signal switch in the steering column
Replace the ignition control module
Weak ignition coil? valve (intake) hanging up at times not allowing fuel mixture to enter combustion chamber?
