I'm having a problem with my '95GT (Windsor 302). This weekend, I changed out the old spark plug wires for new motorcraft wires. I removed an old one, then replaced it with a new one, one by one. So, they are in the correct firing order. The plugs are about one month old, the fuel filter has about 20K miles on it, the injectors are about 2 years old (24#), and I used fuel injector clean about 3 months ago. The engine has 125K miles on it.
Here's the problem. The engine will stutter around 4-5K rpms when the throttle is wide open (or close to wide open). If the throttle is only around half open, or less, I don't get any stuttering. Only when the throttle is pretty much wide open.
Could it be the new wires? Or is it just a coincidence that I happen to change them before this started happening? Could one of the plugs gotten messed up while I was changing the spark plugs?
Any suggestions on what to look at first?
