pamike Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 my car started running rough on the way to work this morning. it had very little power and sounded like it was running on only 2 cyl. i pulled the plugs and they were white in color. put new ones in and it runs good again. looks like it was running lean. what would cause this. the plugs i pulled out were not that old.

subiemech85 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 what brand of plugs did you use?? sometimes they just go bad could be deposit buildup, possibly from fuel additive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamike Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) NGK plugs. as far as the fuel goes i did notice the local station has a sticker on the pump that says contains ethenol but i've been running that fuel in my other 90 legacy with no problems.

greenleg88 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 all pump gas contains at the least a bit of ethanol..... and what about the injectors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pamike Posted November 21, 2008 Author Share Posted November 21, 2008 all pump gas contains at the least a bit of ethanol..... and what about the injectors? what about them? it runs fine otherwise. i was wondering if one of the sensors acting up could cause this.
