Welcome to working on the V8 in an Econoline!! Now you see one of the reasons I'm going to be swapping out a perfect running 351W for a modified 300 inline 6!

That problem child of a spark plug you are referring to is the #1 plug. It's been a while since I did the plug change on a 75-91. I believe I got to it either from the wheel well or from underneath.

If it's the same as a '93, you need a few long extensions and swivels. Work throught the wheel well and it's not too bad a job.
