Devboy Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 ok so i have had my car a while and decided to replace my spark plugs today took the oldens out and the rusty but the ends are jet black, acording to the haynes manual it's because of the fuel mixture :S. anyways i was thinking could it be because of the power boost valve? the guy put it on who had it befor me and no doubt he just fitted it. i heard you have to do some thing with th ecu to make it work properly? anyone tell me how? Are what the most likely prob is? I have the K&N induction kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
