Ok guys, I had a buddy of mine install some headers on my car. its now running like complete ****. No power at all... I just did a complete tune up, I know i gotta change my wires cause there literaly laying on the headers, could this be causing miss fires??? HELPP!!!!!!! Please and thanx for the advice

Wires on headers is a very good reason for the car running poorly. Get new wires and run them at least a half inch away from the headers.

hot headers melt wire shielding causing electricty to spark on the headers and not the plugs ...........

try to zip tie them away the best you can

Ok I went out and got the universal Accel with the 90* boots. After this, if its still running like complete crap what should i do. DeadTrend if I cross the bridge would u take a look help me out?

I had the same problem when I first installed my headers. Only had one wire burn through, but it was very noticable. You did a good thing by purchacing 90* boots. I'm sure new wires will cure your problem, but if for some reason it doesn't, start looking for exhast leaks.....

Did you put your o2 sensor back in?

yup i put a brand new one in thats why i think the car is still driveable, plus the msd is curing the shaky idle and smoothing it out somewhat, i think its my wires screwing everything up cause there all str8 boot wires laying on the headers, so im guess this is causing some sort of miss fire. I guess Ill replace my plugs also with some bosch plat 2. I get them for free so why not use em u know. Just hope the msd doesnt blow em out, lol... Well im gonna try the wires on monday thanx guys, ill let u know what happens.

did you solder the wire on the o2 sensor or crimp it? needs to be soldered

Don't get the Bosche platinum plugs. I had the +4 platinums and just removed them after like only 3000 miles. They are all just about foulded out. I replaced them with factory AC delco $1 plugs and the car runs awesome now. I have pics of the fouled plugs that I will post later to show what MSD and Bosche platinum plugs do together

I got the o2 sensor crimped together... How can that possibly F up my engine????

Double check and make sure all your spark plug wires are in the right firing order. It is very easy to reverse two wires.

yea im thinkning there not in the right firing order cause it starts up fine and just idles like complete $hit... kinda like when i had my stang and i did a tune up i just pulled all the wires off and hooked em all back up in any which way, lol. cause like i said it will rev up once past 2500 no problem
