What to do next?

[Carraudio]

I am working on getting my SHO running better. So far I have...

New plugs
New wires
And fixed the oil leak around the plugs.

It still seems to be running rough and I want to know what I should replace next? This car has not been maintained in years and just needs some TLC.

Check for any codes...fix those problems.

What plugs and wires did you put on it?

 

[Carraudio]

I put in Bouch Platinum and the only set of wires I could find in town, I got them from Autozone.

I think the only codes I am getting are from the o2. because the part of the tail pipe that bolts to the Y-pipe is rusted out and it is so loud but I am looking into getting that fixed today.

People are gonna flame you for using cheapo plugs and wires, but don't let it get to ya....my wife's 94 has been running just fine on bosch plugs and Pep Boys wires for the last year....no problems. What codes are you getting? do you know how to pull and read em?

 

[Carraudio]

I can take it to Autozone and get them pulled. As far as the wires and plugs I would have gotten better ones but I would of had to order them and I needed to get it on the road. any thing would be better then the plugs that where in it.

Just use a paper clip and pull them The procedure is at SHOTimes.com

The Bosch plugs have been know to have problems as well as differnt wires because they are not properly designed.

I would finish the rest of the 60K and get motorcraft plugs. Bosch plugs are too long and the wires won't seal well. I would also pull codes. It has been my experience that SHO's that have not been taken care of can be money pits. Good luck.

At least it has not been rodded. The owners I got it from were the 2nd and they have had it for ten years and the guys wife has driven it to work.
