Special thanks to LewFX who helpped me solve the problem with the RPM fluctuating and back firing and such..
Q1.) Anyway, when I swapped my spark plugs, I found out that my old plug's gapping are all messed up? How did it happen? Last time I check'em plugs, they were OK! I'm clueless on how the gapping could go up 0.04, 0.05 inch inside that little **** hole?!?!? Is there something wrong inside my engine? Q2.) On the freeway going like 75~80ish, instead of bouncing up and down, car would swing side to side... Is this normal? Something is loose? My wheel falling off? Please help! -------------------- |

i drove home from KC today, 5 hour drive. And the beginning of the trip, i noticed the side to side motion. So i went to the first gas station i saw and straight to the air pump. My rear left tire was at 13 pounds, they're suppose to be at 32-33. After airing it up, smooth ride home.
