2002 crown Vic 65,000 miles. It isn\\'t real hard to start. When you turn the key it spins over several times failing to start, release key and try again and it starts right up. It started doing this maybe 6 months ago but would do it only only on in a while. Now it does it nearly every time. However it always starts on the 2nd try and it runs perfect. I am afraid it will get to where it won\\'t start. Any ideas??

Sounds to me like a fuel issue as opposed to a spark or starter issue. Have you checked the fuel pressure with the key turned on but the motor not running? Also the obvious has the fuel filter been changed?

Change the fuel filter, and possibly a spark plug change.

I am still subscribed to this post even though I sold my '03 interceptor, I have a factory '03 service manual also the wiring manual that goes with it, I can help with the info but I would need some specific direction where to look in the manual. That is if an '03 manual is compatible with an '02.
