Just picked up a 95 EX Limited, Owner said it had a bad vibration and couldnt figure out what it was, so gave him $500 for it, Drove it this past week, and it did have a bad vibration and it jerked running down the road, Thought it felt like a bad miss fire. Picked up some plugs and wires yesterday, and while looking things over on what would be the best way to get to the passenger side plugs, noticed a open hole in the air intake tube, upon looking around, found the oil breather tube laying beside the engine, plugged it back in, and it ran 90% better, pulled the plugs and they all looked great except signs of running lean, new plugs wires and runs like new. It has alot of miles, the drivers seat bottom leather is worn, but other than that it looks almost new inside and out. The gamble paid off.

Sounds like a great deal

The plugs normally look pretty darn white with little to no color. That's normal for these things. Used to be you looked for color, but with the EFI and high energy ignition it keeps the insulators really clean.

Welcome to this forum! Do you know if the plugs were original (Motorcraft) or a different brand? Which brand did you use for the new plugs & cables? A dirty MAF sensor could contribute to it running rough so it's a good idea to clean it.
