Well, My plug wires are a year old, and have about 10K on them. The plugs themselves are less than 1000 miles old. My injectors are as old as the plug wires, and my tune is just as old. Yes the MAF is clean.
I supercharged my car 3 months ago, and it sat until about 3 weeks ago. It has been running perfect, for 1000 miles. last night I go to check the plugs to see that it is in fact running good. The plugs looked great. I toss them back in and go to bed. I get up today, let the car warm up and hit the road. Misses under a load, drives normal....just not under any medium to heavy accel. I think its the PLUG WIRES. I go home and move them around, put some shielding on some wires in some places. I drive it, and its a tad better. I am sure its the plug wires. So i head to the bankto check my finacial status.
While waiting in line, the car just turns off....like I turned it off with the key, no stumble or any warning signs. I start it back up, it runs fine, for 30 sec then does the same thing again. When I go and start it this time it runs like junk...like its flooding or leaned way out, when I try to give it gas it falls off and picks back up when i let go and then starts stumbling. out the exhaust is lots of black/blue smoke. I shut it off and push it out of line. I wait 5 min, get it and start it up after snooping araound under the hood. STARTS AND RUNS FINE....WTF....I drive home, still misses. I ordered my plug wires....ACCEL...cause I had msd and ford wires. Each of those lasted a year each. I hope the accels last longer.
Any ideas guys?
