So I whipped out my spark plugs and wires and thermostat to see if that would smooth out the slightly rough idle. Seemed to make a difference.
But there is still a bit of a studder in the idle.
Every 10ish or so seconds the rpms wiggle.
And you can feel a little shake in the vehicle.
Any ideas?
I've also got questions about the spark plugs I pulled out. What do you think of the condition?
I either need to replace the seals on the valves or the valve cover leak is leaking into the combustion chamber through the spark plugs.
Is that possible?
