I installed my Trickflow Plenum last night and now when i hit the gas i can hear this kind of noise that sounds like a flute i guess.. Its not a hissing noise so i dont think its leaking, its just when the TB opens up you hear it give off the noise kinda like "WEEEE"You can really only hear it when you open the hood and open the TB yourself. But im just wondering, is the sound normal? It still idles and does everything it used too the same so thats kinda why im ruling out a leak.

It may be doing it cus i still have my stock TB on because i didnt have time to put the BBK on last night. I couldnt get the TPS screws out cus of the locktite so i gotta grind the screw heads off. Ill be doing that tomorrow though.

 

Yea I say try the TB and see if that works. I highly doubt its a leak cause you would really have to try to make it leak. Check all ur vaccum lines maybe something came unpluged. Mine Kinda did that sound that sucking air and really it doesnt happen now.

 

i'v heard that tends to happen w/ aftermarket tb/plenum but i dont see it happening with my accufab maybe once in awhile though...

 

if i only happens when you have the TB flap open at a certain angle, then this is completely normal. If its doing it at idle then you may have a leak somewhere.

 

Nope it only happens once you open TB, not a t idle.

But now there is a new problem that i have no idea if it is related. My car is kind of sputtering really bad at idle. You cant hear itwhen your under the hood but if you go to the side of the car and listen to the exhaust, it sounds like its almost galloping like a horse. The idle needle on the inside never changes but even when im driving you can this like sputter or like puffing noise. I opened my hood last night too and could see little sparks running along cylinder # 6's wire. Im guessing thats the problem. But your guys insidght would help too. I turned off everything electrical too when i checked that spark plug wire and the little sparks were still runnin along that wire.\

Should i replace all the sparkplugs and wires or should i just replace the wires?

 

i would do both unless the plug are brand new.....plugs are cheap anyways..

 

Yeah the car is running like complete hell now. Its sputting when i drive and im havin a big loss in power. It got so bad before i could feel the car jerking a lil bit. I hope its not fuel injectors.

Is it possible that the Plenum install did this to my car?

 

Replaced the wires except #4 cus i couldnt get to it but that didnt fix it. Im going to go replace the spark plugs now. If that doesnt work, what do you guys suggest?

 

DING DING DING!! We have a weiner uhh winner.

 

I replaced the wire and that didnt work though? Does that mean the spark plug is bad too?
