The spark plug wires was STOCK as it said 1997 (year of my car) stamped on them plus the wire number. The spark plugs had to be stock i bet as they motorcraft on them.. So what.. is that 10 years old plugs and wires :nono:Brought the pregapped bosch plat 2 plugs for 5 each...($40) and durablast??? wires for $50.. so $90 so the whole fix wasnt bad.. taking it to the shop they wanted $80 just to install the wires/plugs and $250 for there own plugs and wires+labor.Also, the only thing that is hard is removing the first wire plug on the passenger side near the front of the car. I had a pain getting that wire off because my hand was to big to fit in that small space plus there was some metal rail just in my way :violent1: The rest was painless and i didnt grease the wires as the box said not (pre piled plugs) to plus there was already oil inside the plugs.Verdit:Driver5- wet6-wet7-wet8-wetPass 1-3 dry4-soaking wetProblem: Fixed. Next paycheck i shall buy some MIL's because im not changing the freaking midpipe till i get an O/R x :BangHead:Thanks sn95 :thumbsup: :headbang: :headbang: :thumbsup: :notworthy: :icon_salut:For ease of installation ill just buy the pre-gapped bosch platinum 2 plugs again- <a href="http://www.boschautoparts.com/Products/SparkPlugs/Platinum2" target="_blank">http://www.boschautoparts.com/Products/SparkPlugs/Platinum2</a>edit: Knock on wood.. i just searched stangnet for reviews on the Bosch plugs and every single one is bad. so maybe next time i will just gap some OEM ones myself. The problem is gone now so my review is good so far. edit: anyone know why spark plugs would cause problems down low in the rpm range, but up high was pretty much fine. The fuel filter is not even 3 years old yet. My buddy changed my filter 3 years ago for me. So, in 2 weeks ill take it to the shop and have them change it.</blockquote>
