Good news.

I called up my buddy and made a mini road trip to Schucks to get some new wires and plugs (the spoiled punk got his parents' top-o-the-line 2004beamer as a first car a few days ago, so we had to "break it in" if you know what I mean... 305 stock hp, and0-60 in 4.5 is pretty fun ).

So, it cost me $45 for new wires and about $7 for new plugs...

It took me for-fricken-ever to figure out that you had toyank on the old wires like a madmancause theyre in there pretty far... great learning experience

Changed them and the plugs out one at a time, and fired her up.

Runs like new.

I appreciate all the help, Biged83!!!


Oh, and I got my CAI painted while I was waiting around!

I love metallic paint...

Well a while ago I realized what was my problem. It was my sparkplugs. One of them wasnt tight enough and si it was loose! Yikes. I am such a dork that I didnt tighten them good enough. Now I have it all set and good. New plugs and MSD wires. YAY!!!
