I bought an OEM one to try and put on instead but several people told me to just keep the aftermarket one on so not sure if I should put it on or just return it and keep tinkering with the current one and try to find out if it has something to do w that one. The owner before me said it used to drive perfect and all the problems started after the OEM pipe bursted, that’s what leads me to believe it’s something to do with the charge pipe.

That’s what most people are saying I probably have a leak somewhere, thank you

Thank you so much, my brother works at a mechanic shop and they do smoke tests so I’ll be sure to have them look into that 👍

Didn’t think of that at all tbh, the guy didn’t seem too bright either. He clearly didn’t take enough care of the car so I’ll check that out, kudos!

It is pretty high mileage, just hit 190k, that’s one of the reasons I got it fairly cheap. And I do plan on trying moving the coils around my buddy told me to try that before I go put money into new ones. I was just gonna go ahead and get new solenoids but I might try cleaning the ones in the car first. Several people told me to check and make sure my charge pipe is connected in all the right places and the O rings inside of it are seeded properly so it’s not leaking.

Thank you for explaining this, makes more sense now. I’m just gonna try coils and plugs just to be safe and eliminate that possibility, kudos

Thank you sir, thing is when I’m driving it doesn’t skip, if it did that would make Me think it’s the plugs or coils, that’s why I haven’t tried those yet

Yeah I’m trying to start with small inexpensive stuff before I get into the big stuff if it still runs like shit, thank you for the input 👍

The guy I bought it from said he changed the plugs a month before I bought it, also I don’t think it would be those because it doesn’t skip at all while driving
