Fine wire plugs have only been available for a year or two. It is impossible for your 98 to have come from the factory with them. You probably had three single plats and three double plats installed at the factory.
The "fine-wire" plug is the standard for most Ford engines now. There is no longer a requirement for a platinum ground electrode using this design.
