[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 1301417, member: 277"] Another quick thought, the iridium plug tips are very easy to damage so it's not recommended to check the plug gap. We have had other Fourmites in the past break the insulator and a plug tip. If the gap wasn't checked, never mind, it just eliminates one other possibility. Ran fine, changed the plugs, didn't run fine. What was the last thing you touched [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/IMG] A lean misfire can be occasional and make a ticking sound too. Can you confirm that the PC III had a good ground? The PC III can cause a lot of issues if it isn't 100%. The PC III in my '04 made my plugs look just like the ones the OP took out. [/QUOTE]
