gotta pay to play, which means if you dont have the tools or diagnostic equipment you have to pay someone that does. guessing will sometimes work, but not always.

Well I got it fixed, someone one corral gave me some golden advice... Unplugged the injectors one at a time, to see if idle changes... and the only one where the idle didnt change was number 4, so i pulled that plug once again, and it had wd-40 on it... I made the mistake of putting some on the threads so it would thread in easier, and it worked.. But i think that fouled the plug. Put a old on back in and the car is fine. Thanks for all the help.

weird, wd40 is very combustible and should have burnt of in seconds.

Also makes no sense that a fouled plug would make the muffler pop....

Im going to hang this car... tonight it overheated on me... but heres the thing, the temp gauge said the car was fine, but it cut out and started smoking but the engine wasnt hot to touch.. the coolant resevoire cap was hot, and smoking the car was leaking but i couldnt see where from definitely not from any hoses, or the water pump.... so im assuming the radiator, is gone.. also when it does its lil overheating thing, the car turns off and i lose power to the car. I almost rear ended someone cause i didnt realize everything was gone. The electric fan does come on. I swear I just want to fix this problem and ditch this car.
