Idle Miss

My 95 F-150 sitting there idleing will miss like one miss then idle perfect for about 10 or 15 seconds and miss again it will do that over and over again. If i don't let the truck warm and go to start off (5speed) barely hitting the gas it will buck trying to start off the go. Could it possibly plug wires I have replaced the plugs already.

Thanks Mike

Maybe a plug, maybe a dirty injector.

Oops, I mean "Maybe a wire, maybe a dirty injector".

Could be a lot of things though (O2 or any other sensor). Not long after my truck was new, I had a miss (not at idle) Ford Service couldn't find the problems after having the truck a few different times. Someone told me "Clean those injectors, use Techroline" I did, it worked. (boy, that was 120,000 miles ago, time flys when you're having fun in your Ford !)
