2001 explorer sport
I just changed my spark plugs and wires and now its making a hissing noise. What could it be? Also is the best way to get to the driver side spark plugs through the tire in the wheel well like on the passenger side

You disconnected a vacuum hose by accident.
 






Sounds like a vac line...I second the vote ! Yes go through the wheel wells to change the plugs
 












2001 ford explorer sport sometime shuts off only when i put it into park

I have no clue what's going on....it only happens sometimes when I put it in park it shuts off....also I seem to blow the blower motor relay at least once a year...any help
 






Yes that's the easiest way to get the plugs out. As for the hissing, you may have caught something or exposed a vacuum leak. I would start checking the plastic connections for the vacuum hoses and if those are intact I would make sure your intake runner is snug
