High RPM Hesitation
 

Hey everyone, I've Got an 89 GT and for the past few months it has been missing when at full throttle above 3500 RPMs. Its not a horrible miss but it is very annoying and I don't want to risk hurting anything else. My Throttle Position Sensor is going out as well. Would a bad TPS cause it to miss? Help me out guys.

How old are your spark plug wires, plugs, cap, rotor, and coil? Stock 5.0 ignition equipment really sucks!

I had the same problem in mine shortly after I got it. It had some old ford racing 8mm wires, a generic aftermarket coil, and the worst aluminum cap and rotor I have ever seen.

I got an Accel Ford Super Coil, Accel High Performance Brass Cap and Rotor, Accel 8.8mm 300+ Racing wires, and Accel Copper U-Groove Plugs. Not only did it fix the high RPM misfiring, but it felt like it had increased throttle response and more power then even before it started misfiring.

Oh yeah, and when I pulled out the old plugs, apparently the guy who had it before me didn't believe in setting the spark plug gap, because it was WAY to big!
