The Autolite APP764 plugs I use look identical to the Motorcraft AWSF32PP except for the name and part number. Autolite is the main vendor for Motorcraft spark plugs and have been ever since Ford was forced to divest themselves of Autolite in the early 70's. Ford owned Autolite until they were forced to sell it off by the Feds. Part of the purchase agreement was to continue to supply Ford with spark plugs. That doesn't mean that Autolite always sells an identical plug to the original equipment. Autolite does not have an equilivant plug to the Motorcraft AWSF32F that my car came with. AWSF32F is a single plat with a fine wire center electrode. It seemed to work fine in my car, but I prefer a larger electrode double plat, which would be the AWSF32PP (which was original equipment in 95) and is the same as the Autolite APP764. The rare exceptions to some Motorcraft plugs being made by another vendor are things like the original spark plugs in Villagers that are NGK plugs with the Motorcraft label, original spark plugs in Lincoln LS that are NGK with Motorcraft label, and original spark plugs in the Escort GT (Mazda engine) that are NGK with Motorcraft label.

Anyway, the APP764 Autolite works great in my car.
