just replaced spark plugs....now I'm having issues.
I just replaced my spark plugs on my 2000 disco (used the bosch platinum +4's). I was having any issues prior to replacing them, but it was time. I didn't replace the plug wires. After I put them in I started to notice that the engine was having some problems. I'm getting some intermittent accelerations, sometimes it hangs up for a couple of seconds when I'm cruising. When I give it alot of gas it doesn't seem to happen, but I did the job yesterday, and it's definately getting worse. Is there any way i can narrow this down to a specific plug? They all went in pretty smooth.....is it possible that I damaged a plug wire....perhaps I didn't tighten one enough? Check engine light has not gone off.

If I remember right you are not suppose to use the +4 without getting 8mm wires. I don't think that the stock wires send enough voltage. I would either order the magnecore 8mm or get some different plugs.
