Thumbs up Everyone Listen To This!!!!

If you have any problems with a semi-rough to rough idle, try what I did. I was having a very rough idle when I'd put the car into gear (D4/D3?reverse)and my foot on the brake. The car would idle very rough and the RPM's would drop, pretty significantly. I have already changed the PVC filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, added fuel additive and nothing seemed to work. I was at the Acura dealership buying a "A" emblem and the parts guy recommended that I change out the distributor cap (what your spark plug wires plug into) and rotor disk (inside the cap) becuase mine were probably "burnt". Not that mine weren't working, but just not efficiently. So I changed them and the results are MUCH better. I haven't driven it yet, but the idle is near perfect and strong. I bet I will have way more power now. i let everyone know later today. The parts are relatively cheap ($21 & $17), so I recomend doing it on our older vehicles. Granted, it was a B***h to replace, but I have already hit the hurdles and could guide you through it easily, if you need directions. Good luck.
