90 Grand Am - backfire after installing new plugs

Jul 08, 2004 2 Replies

I just installed new AC plugs in my '90 2.5L Grand Am and now during acceleration it hesitates and then backfires. I am 100% positive I did not cross any wires and the plugs are properly gapped. I did not torque in the plugs. Is this necessary, and if so, what should they be torqued in at?



Thanks. Tony


what condition are the plug wires? usually they break down inside and thus cause a misfire, etc...
