With 89,000 miles on my '01 its starting to ping. I figure I should change the plugs and wires. Does anyone have any suggestions for spark plugs and wires?
 
Most here will say Motorcraft or Autolite Platinums. Myself and Mike L are using Bosche +2's and no problems for 25k+ miles. Haven't done my wires yet, but a sponsor here sells performance ones for the ST. Hope you don't have much trouble getting them out with that many miles on it. (are they OEM ones?);)

Yes, the plugs and wires are OEM. Besides the K&N air filter, removal of the air silencer, synthetic oil, and replacement of the notorius cracked vacumn hose, I haven't done anything to the engine.
 
Be sure and take your time. You may have one or more "froze" in there. The pass. side ones are a Bear to get out, even at 25K miles like mine was at the time. I left alot of DNA on that side of the engine.:D;)
