Hey guys,
Yeah my car has one problem after the next. I think this is the icing on the cake, let me know what you think it could be ~
"High" mileage 4 valve, 90K+ miles. Engine isn't "knocking" but it is ticking (possibly worn/old lifters?). Been doing so for a little while. No lack in performance. Now I noticed while inspecting the engine visually, Plug wire boots #s 3&6 were shaking heavily while at idle. I thought maybe they had came loose... well when you press your finger against the boots, you can feel something surging/knocking/hitting it from within the engine. Tough to explain, it feels like there is a hammer nailing the bottom of the spark plug against the wire boot. Make sense? This can't be a minor issue...
Can it?
