How to check and replace spark plug wires and Distributor Cap on Lincoln Continental?

Check spark plug wires when installing new plugs. Inspect them in a dark garage for arcing or sparks. Start with the wire for the first cylinder, disconnect it, ensure a snug fit, clean it, and check for damage. Disconnect the wire from the distributor or coil, check for corrosion, and reinstall. If new wires are needed, buy a set for your engine model and replace them individually. It's common to also install a new distributor cap and rotor. Check the cap and rotor for cracks, carbon tracks, and wear. If damaged, replace them, applying silicone dielectric compound to the rotor tip before installing the new cap. Install the new cap, removing and attaching the wires one by one to avoid mix-ups.
