Hmmmm, I have little knowledge of the fuel system. I'll see what I can do. What do you mean spacers?

Sounds to me like a spark plug problem.

Today I will change the spark plugs, and also drain my tank. If after all that it doesn't work, I won't have any options left.

Changed the plugs today, drained the fuel and it was good. But same problem. Now all I have left to think is that its a fuel pump. I have no clue about fuel pumps. I have an extra one installed, how do I check it? Can anyone help? Whats the usual fuel pressure? I dont have any significant mods. Exhaust, pipes, thats it.
