Why no compression on my sable on coil 6?

The question is a bit confusing since there is no "compression" on any coil on any vehicle. Coils are electrical devices that provide high voltage current to the spark plugs. If you are asking why there is no current at the output side of coil 6, it is probably because it is burned out. You therefore need a new coil (or coil pack if it is a multiple coil serving more than one sparkplug).

On the other hand, if you are asking why you have no compression in cylinder 6, it is because your compression rings are badly worn, or a valve is stuck open, or you have burned a hole in the top of the piston.

Have a technician check it out.

On a 2002 Mercury Sable : I assume the coil pack towers are numbered the same as any other Ford / Mercury six cylinder coil pack that I have seen : coil---3 - 4 pack--2 - 6 plug---1 - 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------ Also the engine cylinder locations on your V6 Mercury Sable are numbered : firewall 1-----2-----3 4-----5-----6 front of vehicle > driver The firing order is ( 1 - 4 - 2 - 5 - 3 - 6 )
