I replaced the plugs and the wires myself...when I took the old
plugs out the one nearest the firewall on the dr side was completely full of gunk and no doubt fouled bigtime...when the new plugs ran for a while I noticed it still had a miss so I pulled the one in that spot and the ones in front of it...they all came out looking blacker and showing signs of firing except the mentioned one which came out looking brand new with some gas residue...put a new plug in it's place just in case it was a dud "new" plug and same thing...still missing and coming out clean...
tonite when it gets dark I'll look for errant arching and see if I can do the screwdriver thing to see if there's a spark at that plug at all if I don't see any random errant arcing...as well as wire swapping
in regards to a compression check any suggestions on doing that without having to buy an expensive tool I may only use once?
thanks
Mike
