Hello again.
So this weekend I decided to do some replacing of a few parts and now I'm in a pickle.
I replaced the MAF with a reman a-1 cardone Bosch maf. The old one had a crack at the base of the wire that reads the air.
I also replaced the spark plugs with ngk plugs that were recommended. Y a couple of people.
And both temp sensors. Blue and brown one.
I put a new radiator in at the same time, and couldn't put the aux fan switch in, I need a newer style switch.
Okay here are the symptoms. On cold start it will run fine, start up great. And then once it gets around to operating temps, it will develop a small misfire. CEL will illuminate. But as soon as you barely touch or stomp the throttle. The light will shut off. And it will run fine for a minute or 2 and then do the same thing. It drives fine under load. Just at idle. In gear or in park/neutral. When car is hot, it will stumble and sound like it's misfiring but no CEL and will rev like a dream and then return to stumble and eventually idle decent with a CEL. And repeats the whole process.
I asked Facebook R3V, and a guy told me he had similar problem and he gapped his plugs to .04 instead of .028 as the book says. I did this and no change. Plugs are torqued to spec. 22ft lbs... being a tech, this is stumping me, didn't do this till I replaced all this.. any help would be appreciated..
