Just had new NGK plugs installed now missing...
Just had NGK plugs installed in a 2000 I30. but now its missing & spuddering. What can be causing that?
Re: Just had new NGK plugs installed now missing... (green02patty)
Did you install them or did you have a shop do it? And if so what shop? If it wasnt Nissan and you didnt specify what plugs you wanted they probaby didnt put NGK's in it. and anything else like Bosch wont work in our cars.
I dont see how the connectors could have been installed in the wrong order or anything.
All you need is an allen key and a spark plug socket and you can take them out or make sure they have all been tightened properly. it would take MAX half an hour to take them all out and check them.
Good luck!

is the MIL on?
I have seen this a few times aftermarket shops doing plugs comes to me for a piss, either one of two things happened, the coil went out as a fluke OR a pin is bent on the coil plug on the terminal side. I have personally seen this and figured out how it happens, Sometimes the coil is hard to come out bank 1 well you take some neelde nose pliers to pry or pull it up and you can bend one of the pins on the coil itself. You can easily fix it by bending it back but thats what i could check. On whatever cylinder miss you have. Step one get the code pulled then come back what i just said of course is speculation until i have a code number i can't tell you a thing for certian.

you may want to check and see if the right coil pack booths are matching up with the right cylinder. I know that then I did my plugs after changing my valve cover gaskets. I did not place notice the A1, A2, and A3 on the booths. They are cylinder specific from what I saw from the results with my car. It was missing too, but when I put then in order the car seemed to start running properly. I have research on this booth issue and never found any information whether the booth belongs to a specific cylinder.
I would look and see if the booths are in the right order the next time that you take the coil packs out....it is worth a shot.
