Sounds like it's not snug on the cap anymore. Fix it soon, it's a big deal.Possibly. The engine doesn't stumble or anything, I feel like it misfires once and goes away.

Black Betty Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Possibly.

I got the misfire codes at ikea but i regapped mine and switched the #1 plug with the #5 plug and the #2 with the #4 i didnt have a misfire with the #3 cylinder so i re gapped that one and just put it back. But switching the plugs can help trace down if its the plugs or something else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal3thousand Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 cleaned throttle body and all all electrical itemschecked trans fluid.. it is over its COLD and HOT mark by a good amount... that be an issue?(i put it through the proper gears before looking at it)I've heard that it will just burp up out of he tube and I've heard you can damage seals/solenoids. I'm not sure.Be safe and drain some off from the radiator tube and then top it back to the right level with the fluid you just pulled out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt b Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 see anything nice? You're not looking to replace the wagon too are you? Your wagon rocks.Nope, wagon is staying. Sedan is just an NA, 5 speed with a ton of miles. I'll swap out the interior, makes sure it's free of any issue and sell it. I like that car, but I don't have time to work on it anymore.
