Air Filter: K&N
Oil Filter: K&N or Motorcraft
Oil: Royal Purple, Amsoil, Most of the high-performance synthetic oils out there shud do fine..

Thats just my opinion. .. not sure about the other stuff though.

Go to the FORD dealer.........Motorcraft rules.

Get better oil though.

here is what I would recommend

if you dont already have a K&N air filter change that if you have one just buy a cleaning kit for
oil filter I say motorcraft would be fine
Oil well most people run synthetic like royal purple, amsoil , or redline oil my self I just reg. oil on my car but I change my oil every 2000 miles. I would also change the PCV valve if you have like over 20k

You dont need to change plugs,fuel filter unless you have like 60+k on it and well as far as wires go the 99+ mustang dont have wires they have a coil pack on top of the sprak plug wich does not need replacing

Hey JR I just put some Redline 5w/20 in my ride and OMG what a difference. It seems so much smoother.

Thanks everyone. I've always used synthetic oil, but I've heard a lot of good stuff about redline oil. I wanna change all at once! My "sevice engine soon" light just came on last week. How can I get it off?? Why is it on? ohhhh. FYI I have 35,000 miles on my Car.

yes. and they still are bad. I have to get them replaced but I'm a little short on cash and can't do it at this time.
