Re: My ZE is running like Poo
What do you mean it popped off? the Wire? or the Plug itself? You should be able to get the wire to fit on the plug and disty, if its coming off the plug try pushing some of the wire through the boot. If all else fails, Duct tape!

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
Ok. When I go to a parts store, looking for a spark plug, which vehicle should I search by?
The plug that pops onto the spark plug, that was physically out of the hole in which it connects to the Spark plug

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
You want spark plugs for a 1993 ford probe 4 cylinder. They are the same as the V-6 but one heat range colder, thats what the ZE needs.

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
I think we figured it out, turns out the spark plugs weren't completely tightened. And were loose.

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
Well the problem is still there, a friend and I adjusted my Idle after I got home from work, was running fine. This morning I go to start the car and it starts shaking and feels like its running on 3 or 4 cylinders, but after 2 minutes the car smoothed out, and the idle dropped to normal. What the HELL?!

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
could be a cracked bottom end (crank)
can cause massive shakes even from a hairline fracture in the crank.

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
For the first 4 days after the swap everything just ran great. Now its just going to hell. My car stalled 3 times on the way to work. Idle would start at 850 and slowly drop to nothing.

Re: My ZE is running like Poo
Well I talked to the guy who did the install
He thinks its one of the following problems:
1. Stock K8 distributor
2. My Left O2 sensor
3. ECU (KLZE)
4. Exhaust (back pressure)
5. Needs a Tune up
Im going to be installing my Stock ECU tomorrow and adjusting the TPS to see if it runs any better.
