Thank you very much. I also have some problems with it idling hard. We thought replacing the o2 sensor would help but it didnt. It was even doing this before the misfire happened again. Any ideas?

An o2 sensor won't fix a misfire. Depending on the code the o2 sensor was causing, it could have been caused by the misfire.

Are the plugs oil covered on the outside? (In the tubes)

As far as AZ plug wires, if you get them there, specify the Bosch Opti-layer wires. Part Number 09478 $29.99 You may need to order them. They are a spiro wound stainless steel core.

www.rockauto.com currently has them on clearance for $13.89 + shipping

I know that the o2 sensor won't fix a misfire. I was meaning o2 sensor fixing the idle problem.

You really need to start a new thread in the engine section, with all the details, instead of bumping this one up.

You can quote, copy and paste your posts from this thread to keep from re typing everything. :thumbup:
