Well my latest smoke test down the dip stick tube,..I had smoke coming out of 2 spark plug's 1 really heavy, the 2nd didn't seem like much..1 coil pack missing a bolt the other one was bolted in tight,..so obviously I have loose plug's..? right, or is it that the coil's are not tight enough ? or probably both ? ( passenger side ) Thank's Frank

Here is yet another issue when it's cold out 35-45 Deg's and a little damp after some rain the 1st start of the car the engine shake's, it has very low RPM,..it pop's and kinda backfire's, and just terrible rough running, turn it off, and the 2nd start is much, much better RPM even's out a lot, and much less shaking and poping, run's pretty decent, and once warmed up, it run's great ?? Thank's Frank
