UR6 Plugs

Mr. Keith
This weekend I plan to replace my plugs with UR6s. Thanks to Necrowolf, my truck idles fine without the stumble down low. I do need plugs and wires and wondered what gap I should put the plugs at. Is Turbotime still in business because I would like to get my parts thru a vendor here. Recently, I drove my Ty to work. its 40mins there and the same back. I put her in the garage and about a week later, started her up and she is running real rough. She idles fair but put a load on the motor and it feels like the engine is vibrating. Its like I'm not getting spark to all the cylinders. I did a dm run last week and noticed that I have no real boost control. It peaked at 19psi at a point and I wasnt aware. So, I hope I didnt destroy anything. No air is pushing out the oil cap which is a good thing. Anyway, it looks like its time for a boost controller as well.

I think you have to call or email but still there

I went with 6s and my 2-3 knock went away and the truck feels a little smoother :tup:

Re: UR6 Plugs

Well, I just changed my plugs 2 weekends ago. I'm thinking the gap was too small. Also, I have to find out why I cant control my boost. I have an ATR downpipe with an upgraded gn style turbo. I have a boost valve for control and its completely closed. Yet, I still get 20+ psi in this configuration. There is an ext wastegate which I got to find out how to adjust. Between the two issues, I have to go easy from this point on until I get my wbO2, boost controller, G2 Ostrich, Tunerpro and the list just goes on and on. I just dont want to run my truck on an open loop chip anymore. Thanks for the tips. Now where is that Economic Stimulus Check? :tup:
