Hi,

My 99 Crown Vic has 129,000 on it and generally runs great.

I have had a sporadic problem with the car failing to maintain idle. I dumped a can of Heet in the tank and coincidence or not the problem stopped but, a month later has shown up again. I vary where I buy gas so I don't think it's water in the tank but....

I am going to start with simple first. I want to change the fuel filter but how do I get the filter cannister apart to replace the filter. Maybe I was missing the obvious but I didn't see an easy way to do this. This could well be the original filter and may be the source of my idle problem.

Also any brand type recomendations on spark plug wires and spark plugs? Any big trick to putting them in other than one at a time?

Remember I'm a newbie so please be clear.

Thanks,
