question... would like advice
ok... i did something very stupid... a few times... before realizing it was happening.... i sprayed my nitrous wet kit with the bottle closed... a few times.... so, i shot nothing but fuel into my engine over n over .... like a dumbass...
anyways... i go to turn my car on (before realizing what i had did) and it wouldnt start unless i keep pressing in the pedal, i assume so that air gets into their to help ignite it...
i then changed the plugs, since they were obviously black as night... and put new ones in ... i then drove around a bit, only to keep experiencing the same problem, so looked at the new plugs i put in, and they were fouled black... just from all the fuel presumably still in the engine... i then put the original fouled ones back in and have drove the last day or 2 with them to clear out the engine. It drives, but its terrible and still needs help when starting the car, and sometimes it gets stuck at a certain mph and wont accelerate for a few seconds...
i was wondering if just changing my spark plugs out to new ones now that the system should be flushed will do the trick, or if it sounds like i screwed anything else up....
plz let me know...

ya but it only gets stuck sometimes... like rarely... i guess if when i put the new plugs in if it still does that ill have to check the throttle body out, thanks for that tip..
and ya there's a cel... but i added a header the same day... so i believe that is why...
i can get those defoulers at autozone for that correct?

Change your plugs, idle the engine, drive the car in first gear at about 5500 rpm for about 30 seconds, light load, that will clean out whatever fuel and ____ you have in your engine.
Or just run nitrous alone

rose,
is it the one that goes on the 2nd o2 sensor? $10 bucks? i dont know u said 4 years old... let me know if its the 2nd 02 sensor and is specifically for the header CEL and give me a day or so to get back on you once u accept my price or counter

sounds good bro, no matter what ur gonna have a CEL from the header. it eliminates the cat in the stock exhaust manifold so ur gonna run a CEL regardless. hope u can get this fixed man ill hold on to this for u whenever u need it

hmm, rose you goin to have to hold up a day or 2... i changed my plugs and the car is still acting up... 2 of the plugs went from totally black to what appears to be really lean now....
i think the problem could be my 02 sensors... so i will be checking them today... someone told me ur cat can get messed up, and that when their cat was messed up it had all the same symptoms my car is having... am i able to check the cat by simply taking off the midpipe and looking at it????
need help.. this is so frustrating
