Engine miss (Plug wire experience)
In hopes to help others i will post my recent experience. We headed to Nevada for Thanksgiving and our 1995 MH Chevy P32 chassis 454 developed a slight engine mid.
Taking off from a stop the engine would shudder a little but when up to highway speeds it felt to run normally. Climbing the steep pass grades it felt underpowered kind of like we were pulling something really heavy (we were not)
The trip is a 550 mile trip and I usually only burn 2/3 of a tank but this time I had to stop and get gas before we reached our destination. (Gas milage was was off compaired to previous trip use same route)
At destination I pulled the dog house off today and found that the plug wire on the back passenger side had failed. When I went to pull off the boot it separated and could see that it had burned through the boot. I went to Napa and got a new plug wire set and changed them. The instant that I fired her back up I could tell the difference as the engine was running much smoother.
I will post back and let all know how my return trip turns out.
