    I would just do them all, just so you know. My old m50 ran like shit and got terrible mileage, so I replaced the blue coolant temp sensor and it woke it right up and got my mileage back.

        Go get the NGK plugs. That was the other half of my issue. Never ran right with the Bosch plugs.

                  I've tried unplugging coolant and intake air sensors, no change.

                    I got my fuel pressure tester yesterday. Trying that today or tomorrow. I put some "upper cylinder cleaner" in my tank and running that through. It specifically mentions it is supposed to clean piston tops. If fuel pressure checks out I will probably be doing seafoam next after I peek in the bores with an inspection camera.

                        Hmm, makes sense so far as only pinging when warm (closed loop).

                            go to a parts house. Buy A 1995 ford mustang 4 wire O2 pre cat sensor.

                            38 bucks.

                              Just ordered one. Should have it this afternoon. Will update with results.

                                Well no dice on my end. It might be slightly better with the new sensor MAYBE. Or that could just be placebo. Fuel pressure and seafoam next.
