I'm having a problem with my spark plugs fouling out for some reason. i have a 1987 Camaro LT 2.8.
i'm not sure what the problem is but when i replace the plugs it starts right up. does anyone know what the problem could be?

 

so with new plugs...it fires and runs fine? no smoke or anything? and then the plugs foul...after how long?

 

after i put new ones it it runs great. no smoke or anything. but after like 2-3 weeks they foul out.
Now i also have another problem, i think my mom let one of her friends or something mess with my car and now its not runnning right and i think they might have mixed up the plug wires. do you know where i can find a diagram or someting that tells me which wire goes where?

 

A Haynes Manual can be bought for your vehicle with this information at your local parts store. I JUST gave mine away when I sold my 85'.... I would have checked for you... You can check your firing order, and hope they didn't mess with your distributor though.

What do your spark plugs look like when they "foul" ? Oily, chard? Need more information....

 

The firing order should be written in letters on the intake manifold. Try looking in front of the carb for a firing order. Thats my imput. Have fun w/ figuring this out.

front of car



looking straight at the distributer from the front of the car, #1 is slightly to the left of center , then it reads 2,3,4,5,6 in a clockwise motion
