Dumb me!

Just got my 2000 RL with 180k miles and the engine bay has never been cleaned. So went to spray it off and it looks way clean. But now I have a dang mis fire I know I got some water in one of the coils. Good thing I'm changing my plugs tomorrow

WOW, thats sux. Beside I've never ever spray the engine bay with the water hose lol. I always spray engine protector on a cloth than wipe it down, worry free. Hope the plugs fix the problem.

Good to know it fixed the problem! How do you know that you have a bad O2? Do you have CEL scanner? If it's the O2 after the Cat, it should be very easy to replace. On the other hande, O2 from the engine bay is a b*tch to replace!
