If you do a search of this forum you will find several good threads on the subject of which spark plugs and wires are best for your 3.0L. Nobody really disputes that Motorcraft parts are usually best when it comes to tune-up parts for your Ford, but there are other quality options out there (Autolite, for example).

You might think abuout changing the fuel and air filters as part of the tune up, as well.

Welcome to FTE!

This should help (1991-94 2.9L and 3.0L Engines - Distributor rotation: Clockwise):
