Hmm... This is a bit of an odd problem in my book. It sounds to me like you might have a couple different issues, but if it was working before and you did something to it, it's usually whatever you did to it that's causing the problem now.

It sounds to me like you just changed the distributor cap and rotor, but you didn't intentionally move the distributor itself. Even so, some times people that do mess with the timing don't tighten the distributor bolt down well enough, and that could be your issue.

Just for the record, a 1995 Mustang GT runs an OBD-I emissions system, not the newer 1996+ OBD-II style.
