Idling poorly
#12
So some of the wires were crossing, I fixed it but to no avail. I put my hand on top of the engine and instead of constantly shaking it kind of pulses, barely but noticable. I stuck my hand behind the exhaust while the car was running and there are small pulses of exhaust along with the normal excretion of exhaust( if that makes sense) I hope its not a misfire

you can have your injectors cleaned and flow tested at a shop for way less than new injectors. check with a local injector shop. usually one or two in a major city. rebuilt sets are 130 bucks for a stock 3.4.

An important thing to keep in mind, is that if an engine is shaking at idle and using a stock camshaft, it is misfiring. The most likely cause is ignition, so check the plugs and wires you replaced, make sure the wire are not crossed, or broken internally and externally. and that all the plugs are firing. If ignition is good, than start looking at the various sensors and fuel delivery. If the SES lamp is lit or flashing, get the PCM scanned for codes, it can be a great time and money saver.

Can someone direct me of the firing order and where to run the wires? I thought I had them all correct but I may have accidently switched one. That HAS to be the cause of the misfire

So I stand in front of my car i'll just do it like this- Left side of engine going back is 123, right side going back is 456
So it would be (According to the distributor)
L=
1-2
2-4
3-6
R=
4-1
5-3
6-5
Does that seem correct?
