Since these cars do not have transponder keys you can do that. I keep a spare computer that has a bad cam sensor channel around for things like this.I'll give you another diagnostic idea. Find another 97 V6 Tbird/Cougar computer. Swap that computer in. Not hard to do. Drive it and see if the code comes back. That would at least rule out the computer.
Fyi, You don't have to remove the balancer to take a look. You just trying to see if anything looks out of place.

The calibrations aren't different enough to matter that much.I'll have to wait for a V6 to show up in the yards. But yeah, that's a good idea.
Calibration may be different though.
What is the condition of the wire/connector at the coil pack? How old are the plug wires? You ever replaced the fuel filter? What is the condition of the engine ground?
Oily threads on a spark plug could be an indicator of bad valve cover gaskets.
No.Meanwhile, @Rodeo Joe, did your new cam sensor fix your code?
but I have a pending code for the same code.
We dont know how long they were in there right? [Oh wait you said they're 1 yr]Oh, one more piece of information: all plugs were in the exact same condition.
