good job guys, now find out who did it and I'll hook you up
Maybe you messed up when replacing them? Just a thought...
Yah the first time I replaced the cap and rotor on my burb I got confused and put the plug wires all on backwards. Made really funny noises when I tried to start it up. I do agree that Bosch plugs are junk. I have them in my burb right now and it makes a really wierd chattering sound sometimeand I've been told they could be the cause. I am going to replace them with AC Delcos as soon as I can afford it. Does Napa sell the Delco plugs?
On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"
Car Quest does
isnt this on your chevy? how'd they get to them? from underneath?
Did it all by itself, anyone ever hear of spark plug wires rearranging themselves? When I did the wires I replaced them one at a time. I guess someone popped the hood from the outside...wouldn't be too hard if you own one or know what you're doing.okay my truck decided to start acting like a little b1tch last night.
drove around doing some errands, parked it for about 2 hours, started it back up and the Service Engine Soon light was flashing, running like sh1t, and backfiring. Parked, looked at the manual and it said that if the SES light is flashing, it's probably an miss or an emissions problem, ease off the gas, drive it to a dealer etc, so I looked under the hood and made sure all the plugs were in, wires connected and tight, etc. Started back up, drove to Advance (found out they don't have a code reader, but I got some fuses for my other non-functional vehicle), drove home and parked it. Running like chit the whole time, mostly below 1500-2000 rpms, seems to run fine above that.
It's been about 50k since my last tuneup, so I'm thinking I'll pull the codes, then do plugs, wires, cap/rotor and see if it fixes anything. Since it runs fine at higher RPMs I'm worried it may be an ignition module problem...like the electronic advance isn't working right, but I'm hoping it's just a plug or a wire.
Any ideas?
Jerry you gonna be around tonight?
