Bad misfire
Wednesday, July 18, 2007 5:29 PM
Only happens in 2nd gear at 6k.....and only happens when I take it up from around 3.5-4k rpm. I have no clue I've checked plugs, wires, everything. Any ideas???

what is your boost at that RPM?? Could it be the spark getting blown out?

Around 8psi, little more little less maybe. I have my plugs gapped at .030 so that shouldn't be it. I might be getting a 2step colder plug tomorrow and seeing if that helps/fixes it.

1-step colder plugs.

I pulled the plugs again today, and come to find out there is massive amounts of oil on the threads of cyl 1.

Warped head?? Or bad gasket? I dunno what to do lol....
