Back in business.
The new plug wires came in yesterday from Jegs, after nearly three months of the kit being on back order.
The Lego car now?
I must say it was worth the wait. Back in an earlier post I pulled out cylinder #6's spark plug(Pictured Below) and came to the conclusion that It was not getting any spark. I was right and wrong at the same time. It was getting spark, but not enough to even ignite the mixture during combustion.
Before the new wires. #6 (You know... 40 posts ago)
I am now firing on all cylinders. No more idle stutter, throttle lag, and all the power is back. I now know that I was down two cylinders now instead of one. Those plug wires were shot. A few Ohms checks on the bench and it was all over the place. Continuity checks on #6, #4 failed, while #1 was a weak positive. I guess 250,000 miles on one set it pushing it anyways.Last edited by goskidmark; 03-11-2017, 08:36 AM.

(And yes, also jealous of your cluster :) )
