Well since my car seems like its got a bad miss i am going to change out my plugs and see what that will do since they been in for a while now. I am running the NGK BKE711's i think thats what they are called. Suppose to be the coldest plug NGK makes. But should i go for another brand? Remeber i am also running Forc./In. so you just dont go off naming plugs i cant use in the car.

i thnk you might run rich out the wazoo. if you can find get an egt probe and see what the hell is going on there. i had a table of exhaust gas temperatures that pretty much described how lean or rich the car ran based on temperature. i think the temps should be about 1200 f for around stoich running engine, low to 800 for a very rich engine and up to 1800 for lean
