Rough idle
4.0 V-6 165,000 miles
I have a rough idle after engine is heated...... Coil pack, plug wires and plugs are relatively new. I use 93 octane gas. Any ideas? Thanks 4.0 V-6 165,000 miles Last edited by rum runner; 01-22-2006 at 08:30 AM. |

Re: Rough idle
first off, you only need 87 octane. second those things are fairly notorious forthe upper plenum seals leaking. the first one i did took about a half hour so its pretty easy. you dont have to disconnect everythign just what you need to lift the intake up enough to change the o-rings and clean the surfaces. if i remember right on the driver side up front behind the bracketry there was a metal bracket that i cut in half and tacked back together.

Re: Rough idle
Thanks man....
So are you saying the intake manifold gasket is leaking? Or does it have o-rings? What is the plenum? I also have a small coolant leak from the back of the engine also........ Last edited by rum runner; 01-23-2006 at 08:39 PM. |
