It's too late now. Just change the coil and plugs and see what happens. Probably nothing.
The bigger problem is what else did the yutz do to the rest of the car? If he did one repair half assed you can bet he did more.
One problem with Jaguars are people who can't afford them buy them and then poor boy all the repairs and maintenance. We see on this list day in and day out.

There is little aftermarket for these cars. Spark plugs aren't a place to start. Who knows what fluids were put in? Or what other bailing wire and duct tape fixes were performed?

The AJ series of engines are designed entirely by Jaguar. I do not know where the perception came from that Ford had any input, let alone the design. Jaguar tested many valve formations to arrive at the four valves per cylinder layout. The engineers also considered five valves per cylinder since Yamaha were successful with that layout.
Whether you think of them as good or bad, the AJ engines are of Jaguar design origin.

To add a bit more info. The story I heard was Jaguar had the V-8 designed but no money to put it in production until Ford got involved. To help with the initial cost Ford piggy backed the LS and thunderbird on top of the S Type engine production so in the begining quite a lot of V-8's were produced. Espcially compared to the newer Jaguar V-8 5.0L version.
It would be intersting if we could see what the production numbers were for the different Jaguar V-8 engines. Well there are some numbers here;

and it looks like the 4.0/3.9 version production was about 250K units.
This is kind of interesting too.
