2.0 LSJ Engine: How To: Install Spark Boot Spring Upgrade Kits (2.0 LSJ)
Mine were FREE! Didn't cost me a damn thing. And I still notice a smoother idle.
Hey Rich, you keeping yours in or removing them? I'm kinda up in the air now on whether to take them out or not? I have been getting some random cylinder misfires from time ti time... However that was when I drove to the beach (sea level AFR's)...
Yea, and speaking of free, he sent me two sets for some reason...

How do you know if it's a proven product or not until somebody mans up and tries it?
I have an ETD set to the stiffest setting and an exhaust so I hear and feel every hiccup the motor makes and I haven't felt or heard anything differant fromt he day I installed them. Plus I have intercepters and I monitor misfires from time to time and I still have 0 misfires...
I'm glad I held off like I did or they'd be in mine right now
I had a feeling this wasn't worth the money since he had zero proof
GM ignition does very well on most cars...even modified, so I'm not worried

for the guys keeping them in good luck I hope they don’t corrode your coil packs like they did mine. also keep your stock springs since GM does not carry or have the springs even for sale you will need to buy the whole dam coil pack.
as for my car the grease does not help and I have to stay at 50%throtle to keep the car from jerking. it does fine at full throttle but I try not to hit it too often since im worried that it may hurt more than just the cat. it will not idle well at all since it misfires and sounds like ****. o well one of us had to be the lab rat and now I know better next time lol.

Well I'm removing mine right now... Just pulled them all out and the bright shiney silver springs are now as green and corroded as a bag of 1963 pennies... Back in the stockers go. Useless mod...
well now i can come in and defend my springs my ban is lifted
to all that have had problems with corrosion put dielectric grease on them depends on where u live and all i have never had no problems with mine ever........and none of the cavalier guys or grand am guys so please dielectric grease when u install these......and this mod is not an epic failure been going strong since i first made these like 6 - 7 years ago well i am back now so ask away thanks greg.....

hey cav like i said when i emailed you even with the grease it did not matter if you want i can send you what my springs look like since i had to change coil pacls becasue the springs ate them. so for the $7 i spent originally i now have spend about$300+ becasue they fucked the coil packs up. btw when i took the coil packs off the springs no longer even touch the inside of the coil packs it kinda looks like it disintagrated a little becasue they no longer reach from spark plug to the coil pack. now it may have been just a bad batch i dont know but when i had them in i did feel better throttle respons and the cars idle was alot smother.

yea send me another batch ill re try them on the old coil packs to see if they would do anything. i do live right on the ocean but i dont see how the ocean air would get in the area in which the springs are set. like i said whne they were new they worked really good for idel and throttle responce. im wondering if the 2.0's spark is alot more than the normal ecotechs and that maybe the problem of being to much for the springs and it eats them???? im not sure what ill do is ill get some pics for you cav and ill send you a pm showing what they look like now its not pretty lol.
