Okay, I decided after purchasing my spark plugs six months ago that today would be the best day to change them. Of course I came here first and read Racerguy's how-to, then printed it and read it again. I decide that I will try one and see how it goes. I start with the #1 plug. Comes out easy enough and goes back in just as easy. Coil pack put back on and everything tightened down. I start my truck for s(*(& and giggles and to my surprise IT'S STUTTERING AND POOTING and the engine is bucking a little. My question to you guys is what could be the problem? If I filled the boot with dielectric grease would that cause this issue. I'm willing to take any advice.

 

Recheck all your connections from the injectors to the COPs and even the MAF if you pulled the intake off.

 

That's the thing, I didn't have to remove anything to do the #1 plug. The only disconnection I made was the connector from the coil pack. I even went as far as to put the old spark plug back in, thinking maybe I had a bad spark plug. No such luck, still running like poop for lack of better terms.

 

you dont "FILL" the boot with grease. You put a little around the edge to act as a slide on lubricant, and maybe help keep water out.
