I highly recommend finding a ford engine/emmissions diagnostic manual. The '91 has all the info you need and they are available. I got mine off Ebay for like $30 with shipping. It gives you all the info to test the stuff. Helms also publishes them off and on, but that's going to run you about $100.

check engine light on? If not, start with the usual suspects... plugs,wires,cap, rotor, fuel filter. if they are good, try the touble shooting manual I spoke of. I just found out that techcapri.com has a '94 emissions manual online for download. kinda apisser finding that out after you just bought one.
but it sounds quite similar to a problem I'm having.
