  9. If you decide on the Lincoln, be sure to buy a spare TFI (Thick Film Ignition) ignition module, which mounts to the side of the distributor with 2 - 5mm head size hex-head screws. Also, make sure that the replacement ignition module has the small packet of heat sink paste (AKA "thermal transfer grease") included or, if not, get a small tube of it. Don't go cheap on the ignition module. I'd recommend springing for the OE Motorcraft part number DY1284. Throw these along with a 1/4" drive nut driver and a 5mm 6-point socket in your glove box. These TFI modules are NOTORIOUS for the insulation separating the 3 male spades on the module deteriorating and the spade connectors contacting each other, resulting in a failed ignition module and no spark. There is no advance warning of this failure, you just attempt to start the engine and it just cranks...
