QUOTE (OOBE @ Oct 22, 2008 - 7:46 AM) Nice stock Evo/STi beater. hahaha thank you...look at your car..congrats Okay so a few weeks ago I was driving to get food and out of no where my car started to act funny..it was bogging and had a weird idle..I pulled over and Jim came to drive me home. Just to be safe. Jim and I looked at things and tried different things... we also called Manny to see what he thought it could be..anyway we took the spark plugs out to see the gaps are all outta whack...cylinder 4 gaps prong..(I'm not sure what it is call) was pretty much touching and cylinder 3 gap was way to far apart..once we re gap them the car runs beautifully..it was really weird..I couldn't beilive it was something so little..anyway I am going to order a box of spark plugs just to have incase..and for when I do tune ups.

Also, do you gap your plugs yourself? Ive never ever gapped my Celica's plugs. I buy new V-Power ones and throw them in. Car always runs great.

my only guess as to how the gaps got messed up is detonation inside the cylinders put a lot of force on them.
Also, I've heard you're not supposed to re-gap spark plugs once they've been used. They're cheap so might as well replace them to be safe. --------------------  94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |

so let me get this straight
the jim/shannon team now have- a 5th gen shell, rjb's old car which has been fixed (who drives it?), and shannons 5sfte 6th gen so whoever you bought the 5th gen back from had put a 5s in it? i was thinking it was a 3sgte--- correct me if im wrong |

I don't know if its the calibration issue on my innovate wideband, but when I plug my laptop in it totally reads differently compared to my db gauge. I would think the uego one is more accurate?
And I'm pretty sure the aem uego wideband is cheaper too, unless you plan on doing the DIY wideband. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer
