97 Ford crown vic fuse is good lighter wont work
Did you check voltage and ground, at the lighter socket? Maybe the lighter heater element is faulty, you can usually replace those.

Even if the fuse is good, that doesn't mean there is voltage on the circuit.

I have a '97 4.6 ford crown vic. Only starts up when i apply gas n dies when i let off the pedal any ideas?
Most likely the Idle Air Control Motor, but you could have other issues suck as a leaking fuel pressure regulator, bad EGR valve, or massive vacuum leak.

Have a 97 crown vic and everytime I turn a corner
I would look under your car and look for gas stain's, it's either going to be the filler or vent hose's or the o-ring where the fuel pump goes into the gas tank.

Trying to install a subwoofer on a 97 crown vic
Make sure you are using a 12volt DC system in both units. It may sound simply but an AC sub may need an inverter. Also check grounds.
