Answer:
The Ford F150 typically has 8 ignition coils. These coils are responsible for converting low-voltage power into a high-voltage burst necessary for igniting the air-fuel mixture via the spark plugs.
Please note that the number of ignition coils may vary depending on the specific model and year of the Ford F150. It is always recommended to consult the vehicle’s manual or contact a certified Ford dealership for accurate information regarding your specific vehicle.
