Ford Explorer Engine Problem

My 98 explorer has 2006 engine. the other day it was idling in park and all of a sudden quit! have changed plugs on drivers side but was unable to change passenger side I was called to work. plugs that I replaced all looked fine, I did notice a clicking noise sound a bit like arcing but went away after I moved and reseated boots on plugs.
