Starting problem
I recently changed my spark plug. This morning when my wife started the car it turned over but did not start. She tried again it started but with a drag. I changed the spark plug because the dealer said during a visit in Sept 07 that they needed replace soon. I am trying to locate the problem and identify a fix.
Help. Rod |

Did you gap the plugs properly?

You didn't say what year and model.
If its mid 90's+ then most likely it is platinum or iridium plug and pre-gaped. My bet is you missed something. Start by checking the torque on the plugs and then reassemble making sure you didnt miss anything.
