OK guys, here it goes....
I got on my car really hard the other day and it put out this bad smell, like it was running rich.... When I got home everything seemed fine. The next day I was driving it and it started shaking really bad at low rpms... When I got home I checked it out and it had a bad exhause leak... The bolt on the header flange where it bolts to the hpipe was stripped. I took it to an exhaust shop and had it fixed. It was a little better, but still had an exhaust leak....This time it was at the flange where it bolts to the cylinder head. The header where is bad shape(rusted junky BBk's) so I decided it would be a goo time to get new ones... I bought the Ford Motorsport ceramic coated shortie..(Awsome headers). I put them on as well as changing the plugs and wires. Still not running right, so I changed the cap and rotor... It got a little better. Then I messed with the timing and still not right, but a little better. Here is the problem now. When it is cold and you start it, it just won't hardly idle. As soon as it warms up it idles fine, but then when you rev it up it seems to stumble right off of idle. Once you bring it up to about 2500 RPMs it is fine. It just seems rough off of the idle... The only sensor that has beeb replaced recently is the BAP sensor. There is no check engine light on either...Any advice would be greatly appreciated... :shrug:
