Okay I have searched I still can't narrow it down. Basically my car is studdering under WOT, but at like 50% its fine. I replaced the spark plugs, and wires.it was fine for like 20 seconds of driving after I installed the new wires and then it starts studdering again. Any help would be appreciated.
 
When you pulled your plugs, what color were they (black, white, other)?

Also, what type of spark plugs did you put in?
Did you gap them properly?

I had a stuttering problem and my fix was putting in new plugs that were properly gapped.
Goodluck tho :thumb:
 
yes they are bpr7es's gapped at 28...they were like smoke colored....my car was running lean, but its been richened out since so they are a little white
 
Did you make sure that there wasn't any oil or water in your spark plug wells? I had this problem about 2 years ago, it was a slight "hiccup" at higher throttle. Ended up being condensation in the spark plug wells. I just popped the hood, pulled the plug wires and let the car sit in the sun for about an hour on a dry day. Reinstalled the wires and everything has been fine ever since. :thumb:
