So, im putting stock stuff back on the car, starting with the stock lid + AIR pump... and by accident my hand nudges the spark plug wire second from the back on the driver side (dunno what # it is) ... anyway, it felt a little "lose" ... the spark plug, literally, BLEW right out of the block And had oil covered alllll over it. Cleaned it up, put it back in, runs like a f***** champ !!!!!! Still trading it in tho ahhahaha

i have heard of it happneing with iron heads on high compression motors or crs that run lots of boost, but never on a stock aluminum headed car. i wonder how many of your problems have been phantom results of that?
yea me and some friends put a 1200cc snowmobile motor in a golf cart and once while trying to start it the spark plug shot out of the head and blew a hole in a wooden fence.
I've found loose spark plugs before. On iron heads and aluminum heads. Forget about selling the car now that it runs right! Go enjoy it for a while and see how much you really like it again. Nothing beats GM rwd V8 cars!
