Exclamation Car acting weird!!!!HELP!

When ever i give it gas my car kinda stutters and sounds like its missing over and over. The car also slightly shakes with the stuttering/missing. Only when i give it gas. My car also dosent seem to have as much pick up or power. Any ideas guys? It was also very icy and snow last nite...but it did it all day today.

Re: Car acting weird!!!!HELP!

Have you started with the basics?? Spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, type of fuel being used, etc?

Check to make sure that the wire is arching before you buy a new set of wires. If it is, then buy a set of Taylor OTVC wires.

Usually can't just buy 1. Though I could be wrong, but I've never seen just 1 sold anywhere..

I can help you with wires if you want I can upgrade you with a set of our cut to fit wires (with heat protect shield) or I can make you up a set in that configuration. Or you can replace then with out stock Delteq replacement wires.

Here are some pictures of the wires sets

Also we can beat the price of what you will pay for the taylor cut to fit wires too.

Give us a call

Here are some sample pictures (more to come) We will be offering every type of wires sets known to man so check back to see the updates

THX Jim


P.S. If you need just one wire let me know and i will send you one (did you buy the delteq system from us?)
all you will have to do is pay for shipping
