On a 1996 Ford F-150 with a V6 engine, the distributor cap has several terminals corresponding to the ignition wires. The primary wires include the ignition coil wire, which connects to the center terminal, and the spark plug wires, which connect to numbered terminals based on the firing order. Typically, the firing order for the 4.2L V6 is 1-6-5-4-3-2, with each number corresponding to a specific cylinder. It's important to ensure that each wire is connected correctly to avoid misfiring or engine issues.
Either the cap or the wires need replaced.
YES just follow the plug wires to the top rear of the engine and you will see them pluged into the distributer cap.
on this old distributor there is a cap that holds the wires in place on the distributor. Is there a trick to remove top cap?
Where all the wires plug into. That is the ignition coil. The ignition coil is inside the distributor behind the cap. Remove the distributor cap screws, remove the cap and you will see the coil.
whats the motor.....but regardless if you follow the plug wires they lead to the distributor cap. v6 has 6 plug wires.....one to each plug and all of the on the distributor cap.......v8 has 8 plugs with their wires leading from each plug to the distributor cap
It is in the very back of the engine. Just follow a plug wire from the spark plug to the distributor cap. It is hard to see. All the plug wires start at the distributor and then hook to each plug.
Corrosion inside the distributor cap. Get a new cap and rotor.
Follow the plug wires and they will go to the distributor cap.

The distributor cap is located on the top of the distributor on a 1996 Sunfire. It is connected to the spark plugs via a wire.
the sparkplag wires lead from the sparkplugs to the distributor.
it has to be the distributor cap or rotor or wires...plug wires.
