Some 4 cyl's have 8 spark plugs. Maybe that's it.

Yep, just checked chilton's. The '93 2.3L engines are the 8 plug design.

They used the 8-plug design for some time after '93 as well; I just tuned up a '97 Ranger with the same engine. I'm still not sure how they do the timing on it; i.e. both plugs at the same time, or one right after the other. Each set of plugs has its own coil pack.
