Hey guys

1987 Mustang Cobra GT with 5.0 H.O

bought this car a week ago
runing bad since
a small hesitating from 2500rpm to 5500

sometimes it runs good but only for like 15 seconds.

Fuel pump new
new fuel filter
new plugs
new plug wires
new cap
new rotor

I did not install these but they are new

Anyways

here is what is done numbers are marked on the cap with a marker like this

Wires--------------------Cap
1---------------------------1

2---------------------------2

3---------------------------5

4---------------------------7

5---------------------------3

6---------------------------6

7---------------------------4

8---------------------------8

Ok the marking on the cap could be wrong.

Dont know who did it what

you have the firing order for a non-HO motor.
change the firing order and it will be fine.

So nothing is wrong with the wiring


Cause it did work fine the car for 2 days when I got it

Now all that stuff is new.

I cleaned the EGR valve

Still that damn hesitating sound
