I have CAI, bored TB, high flow injectors. I had until today rear tire smoking power. Today I installed new rotor, distributor cap, plugs and plug wires to get rid of a mid RPM (2000-3000) stutter. I also replaced both O2 sensors to get rid of a code. Now it stalls at idle, is incredibly slow to rev and is slow to shift. If anybody has any ideas I would really like to hear them. I am about to reinstall the bad O2 sensors, or just unplug the good ones to see if that will correct my power loss.

I also noticed a good size dent in my exhaust down pipe, restricting flow, but this was not an issue before today, so I don't see how it could have become an issue all of a sudden.

freegdr

possible wrong sensors?

badger7182

I thought about that, but I looked at 3 different web sites this afternoon and they all give the same Bosch part numbers for the two O2 sensors I used.

freegdr

what plugs did you install

badger7182

champion double platinum, but They have been in for a few days with no problem., the rotor, plug wires and cap all went on today, but didn't seem to have a problem, and then it all started after I installed the new O2 sensors - which even the Bosch page shows as the right part numbers

badger7182

Could the curing of the firing problem be creating enough additional exhaust pressure to make the dent in the down pipe that crucial? I also had a really bad back fire, could that have shattered my catalytic converter thus making the exhaust back pressure even worse?

freegdr

did they have different plugs on them

badger7182

the plugs that came out were the champion non-platinum, which I couldn't even find. I didn't figure it would be bad to go up in plug type, but like I said. I've been driving on the spark plugs for a few days with no issues.

sorry o2s have different plug ends

badger7182

the O2 wire plugs fit right into the connectors on my jeep. I just don't know why O2 sensors working would all of a sudden cause this problem unless it is secondary like the exhaust or something else - I can't even think of

freegdr

do the two sensors have the same plug do they look alike

badger7182

yes, they basically look identical, except for one has a longer ire pig tail than the other.

freegdr

wrong senor in wrong spot maybe there is a difference

badger7182

could be - I'll try swapping them, we'll see
