thanks for everyones input
today i solved the running rough .
i am rusty on working on engines and need to get up to speed, typically i bypasssed the critical first steps of look at the obvious instead i suspected the items i had no understanding on.
this coach has been here for 4 years and i would periodically go and start it up.
at one stage it started running rich
then the fuel pump then passed away so it sat for a little longer about 6 months
i finally got a new pump and it started but was running rough.
as it is not registered i cannot take it out for a test drive
6 months passes again and it is time to start the registration process
i need to get it weighed so i run the gauntlet and drive about 2 kilometres to the weighbridge
it backfires all the way but i get there and back
so i google backfiring and read that maybe a valve is stuck open
so istart to pull plugs to do a compression test and i noticed the wires on the cap problem
so i stop and post my original question on this site
this takes me on a tangent of trying to learn everthing about who the EFI works
this has been a good learning curve for me as i have a bit better knowledge as to which components are which
on sunday i was talking to a mechanic friend and he tells me to get an ALDL cable so i can see what is going on in the computer for in the future (i ordered one yesterday)
he also says that last time he saw me start it up it was running very rich and maybe the plugs are fouled
today finally i pull plug #7 and what do you know it is oiled up
get 8 new plugs now runs like a champ
whats the saying keep it simple stupid
