95 D-1
I decided to change out all my coolant hoses and while doing that replace the V/C gaskets and the intake manifold gasket. (they were leaking) . So I do just that. Everything seems to be going well and I just got done putting it back together. I fire it up and it doesn't seem to want to idle. It also has a miss and a backfire before it dies. If I give it some throttle it runs but seems to have a miss. Let off the gas it tries to idle then dies.
I noticed the plug wires were not in the best shape. A few were cracked pretty bad. Do you guys think a couple of wire finally took a crap when I moved them out of the way. I'll check them tomarrow. Also no check engine light. Just won't idle. Ran good before.
I put dialectric grease on all the electrical connectors including the injectors. Could this have some affect? I don't think it would but I don't know.
Teach me for trying to fix up the rover.
Thanks, Andy
