Just did a tune-up on my 94, used motorsport 9mm wires, motersport cap and rotor, autolite ap 25 plugs. Now i get lots of engine noise through the radio. Any suggestions?

Thanks for all the info, I'm going to check the stator first if that don't work I will put the old wires back on and see if the noise goes away.
I'm not sure if this was a 'we know what you're talking about' thing or not, but actually replacing the stator will not do anything. Now replacing the noise suppression capacitor could help if yours is missing or got brittle.
If you get the noise through the radio stations only (not CD's, tapes, 8 tracks, a bird's beak on an album), check the braided ground strap on the passenger side hood.
If all else fails, go over grounds in the car - particularily the stereo grounds and motor ground.
There are also inline noise suppressors available - I havent used one however.
Good luck.
Ford suggested an inline rf filter for the radio.(1.39 at radioshack) I get noise with radio, tape mp3 and cd. Question is how to remove radio without buying the radio removal tool? Can I just take a couple of pieces of wire coat hanger and bend them
Where is the noise suppresion cap located at?
