Never had a problem with motorcrafts...are the plugs you have motorcrafts or just an aftermarket replacement? NGK, BOSCH, etc.?

I use Bosch plats in my 96' 2.3l Ranger. Never had any problems them. Autolite, Motorcraft, and Bosch seem to work good. Just a word of advice. Don't get the spark plugs with 2 or more eletrodes unless the engine speficially calls for one. A simple plug, plat, or Ir spark plug will work.

Motorcraft plugs are all I use. I doubt that all 6 of your plugs are actually defective. I somewhat highly suspect that either you have a coil issue (very possible at 13 years old) or that whoever installed them didn't take the time to gap them properly. I did that once on my sister's car b/c I was in a hurry and being lazy, durn thing missed and carried on and ran terrible for a week until I went back and set the gap right.

They where motorcraft plugs and it was only one pug that was bad but i do have a intake gasket leak and i think that was what cause the problem and did something to the plug but i still have a miss fire and its a brand new coil pack but the motor has 293,000 miles on it time for a rebuild or junkyard motor what ever is cheaper!!!
