and come to think of it my plugs dont look like the ones you posted...... i wonder if this maybe my problem

ok keep us posted on what they are when you look at them

well remember a misfire can be number of things but ingition consists of air, fuel, and spark you need all three in the proper sequence for proper ingnition if any one is off you could have a misfire

I got mine off the zzp website so its legit

K when i get home from work today ill pull them out and see what they are

i plan to get mine from zzp or ottp

so... i just ordered my new spark plugs and should have them around 1pm pacific time (2.5 hours from now) which i hope will fix the problem.... i do remember on the side of the plugs i put in for my build were the LSJ one's i believe, i havnt pulled them out yet, but im still trying to figure out why the plugs i have now will suddenly make my car run so shitty?

Because they are to short.

Nice to finally prove to someone that the vendors on here are raping people on prices of parts....seriously ottp 38$/sparkplug....what a rip off

so i swapped out the spark plugs, and that fixed my idling problem...... i took it out and it still fucked up for a second but went away (i was pushing it a lil to see what would happen).... shes running fine right now as long as i dont go into full boost, ive cleaned the maf and its just drying right now but holy crap it was dirty!

haha glad the right plugs helped a bit now lets see if cleaning your maf helps any aswell

seems to be working nicely, but im kinda scared to push it to see if it does it again..... im wondering if it could be because of my shitty tune too

i changed my injector seals today and my interceptor went from reading 8-20 misfires per cycle at idle down to 0!!!! thats right, 0. zero. and when i decelerate it was reading as high as 44 misfires. today the highest i saw was 4. i know that the interceptor is not even close to 100% accurate, but it gives you the idea. Rough idle is pretty much gone, one or two more updates on my tune and they should be gone.


CLIFFNOTES: if you didnt change your injector seals when you put in your larger injectors, give it a shot. it made a difference for me.

good idea ill look into that..... how much you pay for them?

like 25 through rock auto. do your research though, i forgot i had aftermarket injectors so only my bottom 2 o-rings fit. maybe email zzp and see if theyll sell you ones that fit the stage 2 injectors? im sure they have some laying around

werd thanks

so there are diff. seals for each because iv got 60s so i should check at zzp first?

AAARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!! Car ran beautifully this morning, went to go for lunch and im still havig the same problem! Im getting mad missfires in cylinder 1 (9) and 3 (13) the plugs are gapped at 0.038 is this correct?

injector seals next? i say park it till u can afford to take it to a mechanic..

Evan you wouldnt happen to have the part number for those seals would u?

Is there any difference with these kinda builds on the 2.2 LAP compared to on the 2.2 L61, not intending to thread jack here, just curious

Thats a good question actually, my cars got the lap engine

bump!

other than the ability to use HPT not that I know of

so who can use hpt? cause i was thinking about trying to find a dealer around me here

the LAP engine can use HPT
