First Problems with the new truck

looks like everyone beat me to it, but yea i woulda said a coil as well

 

good to hear you fixed it.....also when you pull those coils out look at the spring like conductor inside the rubber boot(that fits over the plug) and if you see any rust starting to form it's just a matter of time before it will go out. The rust is what stops the pulse from charging the plug. FYI

 

Thanks west, the plugs are prolly gonna get changed soon b/c I don't wanna deal with them and I'm gonna order coils and stuff to do at some point. Its still definately runnin a little rough but its at least driveable if I have too. The coils are like 200 a set or something downthere so I don't even wanna know Canada prices lol

 

You can take a shop vac and pull each coil out (put the hose over top the plug hole) and get the moisture out. I've had to do this before.....it's worth doing to keep from ruining the cops you have....also changing the plugs is a great idea but if the cops are not rusted and are working/firing properly then there is no reason to change those IMO unless you just want to. Stay away from china brand coils and Accel coils. I've heard they are junk.

 

Ok so we've decided we're gonna do the plugs for now cause I can get them up here and we'll just crank every heater we got up in the shop. I'll clean and dry all the coils really well as I take them off. Do any of y'all have any tip or pointers on doing the plugs, I'm totally new to this setup, and I can't say I like it so far , so any ideas would be appreciated.

 

read west's sticky on doing plugs. it in the tech section

 

Oh I see, thanks thomas. So these ones don't have anything real tricky about them breaking and chit.
