I ended up putting the air cleaner back on and it started to run 10 times better... still had a small miss so i looked over the wires to see if they where touching. found out i had two and four touching and the number two wire had a crack right by the boot. felt comfortable driving it to the parts store to do a code read, and it confirmed i had a miss fire on cylinder two. I wont be driving it this week, and I'm planing to do pug wires this coming weekend...

plug wire recommendations are welcome, acdelco wires are 60.28 at the parts store.

anyway an hour last night changing 5 plugs and 5 hours today changing one. people weren't kidding about plug number three lol

also i was averaging about 1000rps at stop lights before and now when i went to the part store it was idling at 500rps. At 40mph it use to be at 2000rpms and it was around 1700rpms.

and not to ramble but the plugs i took out where acdelco 41-992 are those stock plugs? cuz they looked like it

 

after i did a tune up last year i had a plug wire pull off the distributor (lubed the insides of the boots with wd-40) was towing a trailer and dont know if the engine twisting from tourque caused it or not. im sure you looked and made sure all the wires are still on, but id thought id mention it.

 

i just put 993's on mine.
thats what i got told to use...

 

I suggest you use delco wires
