I changed to Autolite 25's copper I hear they are an excelent in the foxes. Well I had Bosh platnum 2s in there before. I don't know about 2s but I heard platnum 4s suck. Well anyway I put autolite 25s in and it now runs like crap.

(I just want to know why it runs good with platnum 2s and not autolite 25s which I would thing would be the perfered ones.)

Should I try getting the bugs out or just put platnum 2s in?

It happens at idle.
I set the gap at .044 just like the tech manual says.
For some reason for 91 and up it says .054 I guess they have a different cam I know 93s have different pistons.

Mine is 89 an following the directions it said gap a .044
I believe 87-93s are all .054" I would suggest looking at the Sticker under the Hood and in your Owners Manual for the Correct Gap.
I don't know I used a Chilton's Manual it might have had a typo. Either way problem solved Thanks I will diffently look that up for future reference at Ford or somewhere because I don't have the original owner's manual or hood.
Yeah the Chilton Manual is pretty Generic, look at another persons Stang or talk to someone at Ford.
