Rough idle rough acceleration...just rough
Rough idle rough acceleration...just rough
Hello. just wanted to get some advice. my spark plugs were bad and decided to change them. when takin the wires off the wires ripped due to texas heat and caused it to be brittle. so i ordered the wires. 5 days later they arrive. Today i replaced the wires and spark plugs with one step colder and gapped at .024. the mistake i ran into was i had little to no gas in the car. so i started it up and started nice. then went to the store and car started to turn off rite when i got there. i put gas 93 octaine and started to idle rough and needed to push gas to keep on. so i decided to gap at .028 thinking the gap was too small and same thing. then i put the old spark plugs on...same thing. then i changed the boots on the coils to the old ones...same thing. Only thing i can think of is the fuel was dirty and maybe clogged and injector. but when i test drive it it feels reallly rough and barely moves and tugs. feels like a boost leak maybe but it was running fine before. the reason i replaced the spark plugs was due to bogging in the beginning of the rpm while WOT. I checked intercooler piping and everything seems to be nice and tight. also one of the coils(3rd) bolts 1 out of 3 tighten. previous owner stripped it. any help or suggestions would be appreciated. also i cant here the blop blop blop from the cam. its a constant sound and sounds like a dirt bike now...i have a cutout,cam,hks ingnition,bigger intercooler, forge reticulatiing BOV, 3in exhaust, and thats about it engine wise. like i said. everything ran great before...except during racing.

Sounds like maybe the wires are being put on wrong...check to make sure they are in this order...
