Ok, I am slightly upset with my car right now. It is running more boost than it ever has in it's life before (only 13psi) and I have fixed all but one VERY minor boost leak. And my car idles like shit. And feels way slower than it used to be when it had a bad leak.
It skips like crazy once it warms up. I can't figure out a reason why. I replaced the plugs about a month ago, new plug wires. etc.
I do know it is running very rich. I finally got my boost and A/F guages put in and the A/F guage is 2-3 lights into the rich.
I am using a pretty thick oil at the moment. (15w40)
Any ideas? could it be as simple as my plugs need cleaning since my car seems to need a quart of oil for every full tank of gas?
