Help with a 2001 v6 3.8 with a rough idle.
Help with a 2001 v6 3.8 with a rough idle.
Hello I posted this in the sticky about the mysterious misfire but now attention yet so here is my problem.
I notice a slight miss when the car is sitting at idle. It's like a pop or a skip. Once I hit the gas, it goes away. It is only every so often as well, ie weather change between hot/cold and damp/dry. I had a tune up 2 years ago where they replaced the plugs,cables and coils. I was looking at the cables and some of them have black marks on them....
also, Im thinking about putting the boots and heat protectors on the cables. Where do you get those? The auto parts stores around here don't seem to know what I am talking about.
Help would be awesome!
