I would look for a vacuum leak. Forget about a vacuum leak, look at the wiring harness that powers both ignition coils over plugs 2 and 4. If that wiring harness or the plugs are just the least bit cracked, it needs to be replaced. The coils aren't getting proper voltage. _________________ If it was running fine prior to the installation of your plugs, then it's safe to say that it's something to do with the plugs. My guess, off the top, would be that you've reinstalled the wires incorrectly. Verify your firing order, and confirm correct installation. Otherwise, I would recheck plug gap, then get into the expensive stuff.
There are several things that can cause your 2002 Kia to idle rough. The most common cause will be bad spark plugs or a bad spark plug wire.
Power brakes use engine vacuum to get their power. If the engine is out of tune, the loss of vacuum will cause it to run rough. Try changing the spark plugs.
recheck wires to plugs sounds like two are crossed
Check your plug gap and that you didn't crack a plug.
maybe bad fuel try some dry gas
change the plugs and wires
There are several things that can cause your 1993 Nissan 300 to idle rough. The most common cause is dirty spark plugs. Bad spark plug wires can also cause the problem.
they could be bad spark plugs as in not a very good brand. or maybe you didn't put the wires back on the right spark plug.
When the idle goes rough, you must idle the plugs. Else the car plugs roughly.
The most common cause of a 1996 Ford Escort to idle rough is bad spark plugs or bad spark plug wires. A plugged air filter will also cause it to idle rough.
Rough Engine Performance AFTER Changing Distributor Cap and RotorThe only thing I can think of is that in the process of the changeover, the wires between the newly installed rotor and the spark plugs were not reconnected to the proper "towers."As a result, the spark plugs are not firing in the proper order thus causing the rough running. Since the engine will run, I also suspect that possibly only one or two plug wires are improperly connected.
