Driving home from work earlier my 7G just didn't feel right. Shaking when driving and idling around 12-1300 RPM. And then the CEL came on. It began backfiring, and bogging. Definitely lost power. And had difficulty accelerating. I got home and checked the code. It came back with a cylinder 4 misfire. I was unable to make it to an autoparts store. So I used a set of plugs that I installed back in March, when I had a cylinder 1 misfire. The plugs were removed over the summer, when I was told the plugs weren't right for the car. I believe I was told they are "colder". At any rate another set of plugs were installed. When I removed them today the plug closet to the left side of the englin was kinda burnt up. I replaced all 4 plugs with the ones I had installed back in March. I had a problem with the plug boot 2nd from the left. It doesn't seem sit all the way down. It does make a connection though. At any rate I clear the code out and take the car for a ride, and it's performing the same as it did on my ride home. Any advice. I have to be able to make it to work tomorrow night. Although I am going to try and wake early enough tomorrow to try and take care of this. I was thinking of heading to parts store and getting another set of plugs and wires.
should I do that?
I really don't want the car to end up dying on that ride or the ride to work tomorrow night. Unfortunately I don't have access to another car for either trip.
