I changed my spark plugs about a week ago, and everything was working fine save for some hiccups occasionally when I would release the clutch too suddenly.
The engine would move the car forward, halt, forward, halt, etc... I thought it was an issue with the gap in the spark plugs and told myself I'd do it another day.
A few days later, after it had rained, I got in my car to drive home from work.
The car started up pretty badly, cranking until it painfully started the engine. The whole car vibrated really badly. I drove it home, and knew I was in for a headache.
The next day, I looked at the tailpipe and whenever it would puff out some exhaust, the smoke was white, not clear. When driving it to someone's house, the Check Engine light came on.
Since then I haven't driven it, and I have put the old (working) platinum spark plugs in again, and have also changed the spark plug wires.
Can anyone diagnose this issue?
Thanks for reading/your input.
