I haven't been driving the car, been taking the motorcycle (haven't filled up since June 30th ). Took it out last night though and forgot what driving without power steering is like. I also had a random misfire every once in awhile. So I 'serviced' the plugs and wires. Pulled them, cleaned off (after comparing to one of those plug color charts), re-gapped them, re-installed, and ohmed out the wires. All was good. One of the plugs was barely tight at all and another was definitely looser than it should be. These are the same autolite's I installed in post #15. I've got ~10k miles on these copper plugs and they look fine. Haven't driven the car yet though, but hopefully those loose plugs were the problem.


Can you technically 'service' plugs, or is it just a matter of terminology? Should you gap to the plug manufacturers or to the car's spec? I put them to Ford's spec. I think I set them at Autolite's initially.
