Need spark plug help!!!!

[Delliott]

I went to check my spark plugs. Took them out and out them back the exact same way. Now my car idles terribly and backfires. If anyone has an idea I'm all ears cause I really need to get it fixed by tonight

This may seem stupid, but did you connect all the wires correctly and tighten the plugs enough?

Probably put the wires on wrong. Does it sound like a lawnmower, have no power, rough idle?

[carfantiti]

yes you put wires back on wrong oder

my money is on crossed plug wires.

Put them on correctly. I checked everywhere online and I put them on correctly.

Did u put in new plugs? Probably put the plugs in the wrong cylinders & it's acting up. If new plugs check your gaps. Stock is .028 if its still rough bump up the gap until the idle is smooth.

Put them on correctly. I checked everywhere online and I put them on correctly.

Check the gap. Take some pictures as well. Maybe your missing something. I do this all the time. Having someone else look at your work may reveal a simple mistake.
