Hey im back. I forgot about this post. lol. Yeah check for coolant leaking. Also there are no plug wires. Only a coil pack and a plug.,.... Well i mean there are 2 wires that go to the connecter, but just for v-ref. Also, Vfast, could be right also. Could be a bad injector, or a leaking injector. The world may never know.

I'm going with vfast on this one. I just checked my injectors and they were fvcking dirty. I was also having a sputtering issue that got progressively worse. Have the injectors thouroughly cleaned I see how it runs.

I have a different sputtering problem that may or may not be related. My vehicle is a 95 mustang gt
My car Idles fine and works well at WOT but sputters badly in between Idle and WOT. So basically it starts up fine and idles fine but shortly after starting to drive it will sputter as if it is getting no fuel and basically not accelerate at all unless the gas pedal is depressed all the way (WOT). I just put new gears in the car. Was 3.08 now its 3.73. Also I have the wrong gear in the tranny for the spedometer because the one that came with my gears was wrong. it was the 7 tooth gear instead of the 8 tooth. I doubt this has anything to do with it but. . .?

I have CAI, Full MSD Ignition, Billet Adjustable fuel pressure regulator, Full exhaust.

My car had done this before. Just like sputter once or twice, but then it would go away. Now it does it all the time. Any ideas?

Thanks

Check your ignition timing.
