after changing the plug wires and coil, i figured i might as well change the plugs because the next thing was the opti. I started with the passenger side first because it is the hardest. took of the altenator, pulled plug 2, it looked fine the gap was a little off. 4 was the same. 6 looked a little ashy. ...and then 8. most fouled out plug i've seen in my life

drivers side all looked good except the gap was a little off on a couple. put new plugs in and vwala, miss is gone and it pulls super hard.

Gotta love the easy fixes!

 

IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111


alrite sorry, that was retarded.......

 

yeah, pretty much. I didn't want to believe it was the plugs cuz i changed them not more than 5 months ago.

 

I'm sure you meant to type that a little differently, but it could have been a plug wire all along. Your plug could have been so fouled by a bad plug wire that it would still not fire with a good wire.

 

fixed that little typo. but yea, after i changed the plug wires my low rpm miss seemed to stop, but up high in the band it was still hesitating/cutting out. but it feels like it used to now that it is running like it should. i'm wondering if the PCV could have had something to do with this?

 

haha, nah, it happens to everyone....I cracked my dash when I was dusting it off! argargargargarg!!

 

like shoebox said, its prolly the plugwire that made the plug go bad, pcv wouldnt cause a plug to foul out unless it was blowing oil into the cylinder
