spark raddle
spark raddle for the last few months my 96 t/a has had a spark raddle when i get in it under load the car has run hot in the last year and the plugs have about 50,000 miles on them, i also run 89 octane gas in it . what do you guys think might be, plugs maybe heat damage from runnig hot or getting old (50,000 miles on it) and alot of passes at the track but the bottom sounds good.

1. my car runs like trash on 89.
2. I had a similair problem and it ended up being the wires. Turns out as the engine heated up, my older wires insulation wouldn't work to well, and I had arching going on. I'm betting this is one of the issues.
I would replace the plugs and wires anyway. But my guess is, if you poped ur hood in pitch black you would notice arching.
