About a week ago my cobra started having a bad miss and would hesitate under boost. I was unsure of what it might be so I scheduled an appt at Nextgen in hayward. I took it down and after once again describing the symptoms the owner asked me how many miles were on it and when was the last time I changed my spark plugs. I told him I've had the NGK Tr6's in there for about 20k miles. he then informed me that you should only run them for 6k miles before changig them and that was probably my problem. So I bought some new plugs gapped them at 34 and installed them and sure enough car runs hella good. My dumb ass had no idea that those plugs would have to be changed so soon. I didnt thimk 20k miles was that much.

What I appreictate is the fact that he gave me some free advice when he could have very easily charged me to diagnose the problem. Alot of shops would not have done then same. Next time my dumb ass will change the spark plugs before 20k miles lol!
