problems after installing coils/spark plugs
So i bought the BHR ignition system & spark plugs
I just finished the install today, but something seems wrong. Im almost positive i have everything hooked up right but maybe someone here can correct me on that. Basically after installing the kit and turning my car back on, it misfired at startup and at idle if i rev the engine and then let go of the gas, the car's rpm's drop so low it almost dies, but then it goes back to normal if it helps its an 04 |

Per Ray in numerous other posts, the #1 problem with BHR ignition installs is the installer failing to have the ground secured at a good grounding point.
So check that. If it's not that, I highly recommend you give Ray a call or email, he will probably make that exact comment if he sees this thread first :) |

Start here and ensure everything is correct.
-snip- It's too hard to see the colors on those wires and i tried just switching the spark plugs wires, thinking tht if i did have them plugged into the wrong one this would sort it out. And while it didnt misfire on start up after the switch, it still seems to be running rough and still almost dies after revving

more info, so today i switched back the wires, cuz im pretty sure i had them right before. I also relocated the ground wire to a better spot than before. When i first started it up, my idle was rough. but i figured maybe becuz the fuel trims were reset from pulling the battery, so i took it for a spin, and all went great. no power loss issues no stuttering. no rough idle. if anything my 8 is deff running better than before. When i got home though, i did notice one thing, but maybe im just paying too close of attention to little things. Anyway here's a video. i just put my camera near my exhaust. if u can hear it, it basically sounds like its hiccuping, but other than tht everything seems to be running great, any suggestions? |
