      It's your tires man!! LOL joke. No Actually I'd try plugs and wires first. Sounds like it's that to me. If you want, we can meet up and I can take a listen to it to see what it is. Let me know. P.

        Haha. I wish it was that simple. Thanks for showing me the light on my tires situation.

        I replaced the plugs in the summer so I am thinking it is probably not that (NGK's). But it probably could be the wires because when I replaced the plugs as I was pulling the wires out they came apart.

        Does SLS carry Magnacore wires? If so I am coming on a trip to Fargo.

          that sounds a lot like the problem im having. does it sorta feel like maybe its just not getting enough fuel in the upper rpms?

                I am currently having multiple problems right now with my Talon. The idle sucks really bad after it warms up. Once the engine is warmed up it idles around about 800 rpms but the engine every few seconds will seem to jerk like it was missing on a cylinder or something.

                Also when I am approaching or have past 3000 rpms while acclerating it stutters and acclerates very slowly as if it were on a wake-up strip on the freeway. I called a shop here in Fergus and they said it could be a timing belt.

                I did a little research and found out that it may be due to some bad plug wires but who really knows. Also some other things that are wrong right now is that my power steering does not work and the CV joints are bad. Not sure if they are related but you never really know.

                What year is your talon

                  Car is a 91.

                  It should be getting enough fuel because I turned the boost all the way down. My check engine light is not on so it must not be sending any codes.

                  Wouldn't it send codes if it was not getting enough spark due to a bad plug wire.

                  I am going to pick up some wires today at NAPA unless someone tells me not to in the next 4 hours. I was just wondering if NAPA 8mm wires would be sufficient.

                  Weshole do you have some sort of a boost leak tester?

                    You wont get a code for a missfire or a spark plug wire being bad. As far a a boost leak tester, I don't anymore but you can make one easy for about 10 bucks.

                      Do you think I should go with NAPA wires?

                      I really haven't tried making a boost leak tester up here because I really dont have the means to.

                        They have em on hand. I get a discount there. They are 39.28 plus tax. Carquest has em too they want 45.09 with my discount. Normally they go for about $70.00 to 80.00 a set.

                          Are they the 8mm ones?

                          I guess you it is better to go with the bigger wires.

                            Check your Dizzy it sounds like it could be loose, or not adjusted right.

                                      Funny thing today.

                                      I went to Fargo today with my gf for a nice afternoon of just moseying around but I decided since I was in Fargo I was going to stop by SLS.

                                      It took an hour for me to find it and when I did find it it was closed. It was a cool looking place because of all the DSM's that were in the parking lot.

                                          There are a lot of DSM's in the F-M area it was surprising to me.

                                          What can they all do at SLS?

                                          I am thinking about using my Tax Return there. 😄
