Ok, so i was driving down in good ole Elgin, Texas. We had just got like 10" of rain and had road flooding and extreme potholes. I was just driving along....and hit a good sized bump...then my check engine light came flashing on and my engine shakes in idle...and pulses in drive. I think it may be a loose plug, but i am not sure. I have need ro replace the plugs and wires for some time.....i was just wondering if anyone might think it was something else....and suggestions? I am not the engine expert by far...and i need some help..if it is the plugs....how do i get to the ones that are further back on the engine. I have a V8....and i can only reach the first 2 on each side. I need some help...my X has been my learning device so far with installing suspension kits, stereos, air filters...etc....i just need some advice. Thanks in Advance.:rolleyes:

WHY DOES NO ONE RESPOND TO THIS POST....I NEED HELP....HELP
 






Check your vacuum lines. They can be knocked loose pretty easily.
 






Check your MAS. A connection may have come loose or maybe it just needs a little cleaning.

To check the plugs, you may want to try going through the fenderwell skirts.
 






Check your air filter... make sure you didn't suck in any water.......
