Resolved 2G Compression Test and now Bad Idle

[Anthony Yacullo]

Well I changed my plugs about 2 or 3 weeks ago, and today I did a compression test(numbers turned out great). But for some reason my idle is not steady, the only thing I can think of is I put the wires on wrong. The car is a 96 eagle talon and I've tried the two firing methods posted on ecmlinks wiki. Ran out of day light, so I thought I would just shoot up this on the forum if anyone had any ideas.

Prior the car idle great, afr's seem to be more lean, and seems are the car is hunting trying to keep the idle it was set at.

Goes 4123 did you forget to plug somthing else back in or knock off a vac line. What plugs and gap did you use? How do the wires look are they on all the way?

The coil pack is 4123, but on the block its 4231(timming cover) corrrect? The gap was stand .029, ive checked everything else haha!

The block is 1234 from the timing belt side. So just put the wires in the coil 4123, make sense. So switch 2 and 3 and you should be good.

Figured it out!

I dropped one spark plug while putting them back in and this morning I took a look at it. It looked like it was gapped to .05 or less.....
