I'm wondering about some tune-up tips with the 2.3 turbo motors as I'm a n00b with turbo's. It feels like my car is hesitating a little bit when I step on the gas. I'm assuming my timing is off some, but being I have back problems, I can't get down and dirty like I used to, so it kinda sucks!!!!!!! I've got new plugs, wires, just changed the oil, along with the oil filter. Didn't get a chance to throw in the plugs or wires yet. Tell me what you guys think, I need help!!!
Umm air filter and fuel filter too depending on how long it's been since you changed those last.. Those are just some basics that you hadn't mentioned though, I don't know anything turbo specific.
what kind of plugs and wires did you buy?
Autolite 764 plugs, and motorcraft wires have been the best combo ive used. I had bosch wires on my car when i got it, they were rather new, and it hesitated a bit, motorcrafts cleared that up nicely.
I also use the autolite 764 they seem to work great I also like the NGK's I tell you to check the TPS setting. Also you might want to get a new O2 sensor if it has been awhile. I've also had good luck with the motorcraft wires.
I'll have to check them out when I get home.
I'm using the 764 autolite plugs, with Xact wires.
Xact wires?
Motorcraft is about the best bet for these. I've also had good luck with Taylors (when I had to do a custom set for the turbo Ranger).
I'd return the Xact's and at least get some Motorcrafts, they're pretty inexpensive.
I think I got them for free cause a friend of mine worked for Advanced Auto parts and just put em in my bag, so I might just go do that. Thanks guys!
