#7876, "help (kinda long)"


          

here it goes...my car stutters on low RPM's at low speeds(40 mph or less)...I checked the FCD(re-wired the whole thing),checked my vacuum lines...all's good.My check engine light's not even coming on.It feels like how somebody steps on the gas,brakes,steps on it again...and so on...but it goes away at WOT,stutters a bit then jumps right out...I got the BKR7E-11 gapped to .035.It kinda drove weird since I put the NGK's on.Would faulty or mis-gapped plugs do this?I'd really appreciate any sugestions...I got 440's and an AFC coming...gotta get this show on the road!

Yes. Recheck that gap. 1283's (BKR7E-11) come pre-gapped at .35, so unless you dropped one or something, they should be right. Have you tried different plug wires?

Well,haven't had the chance to get new plugs.Re-checked and re-installed the fuel pump,vacuum's at 17-18 on idle(enough?),vacuum tee's are good.Hope it really is the plugs.What if it's not though?

I had a similar problem once with my plug wires. I had my bro get in the car and step on the gas while I watched under the hood. I noticed that one of my plug wires was grounding out (could see a spark) on my upper strut bar.

and God said, "Let there be light"
and man said, "Let there be 2gnt!!!"

well,i changed the plugs,changed the wires,re-installed the fuel pump,checked my vacuum lines.turns out i'm getting a code for my o2 sensors.would bad sensors cause my car to misfire?just wondering cause the misfire code apeared before the o2 sensor one.BTW,i think i'm running way rich.gas mileage is worse than a b!#!#...and i got black residue forming all over my back bumper,loss a some power too...what' ya'll think?car stutters really bad on low speeds.(45 and less)

One way I've always found to check the 02 sensors (might not work on your cars but does on Honda's and 4G's) is to make sure the car loops at idle.. meaning does your 02 cycle at idle and at cruise if it doesn't then you probablly have a bad .02 sensor.
