Backfiring?
Backfiring? Well I got my Throttle back from having it Port & Polished. I cleaned a it little with greaseless lubricant, replaced a header gasket and fired it up. It nows backfires at idle! WTF?
Did the greaseless lube that I lightly sprayed on the spring and on the butterlfy (to remove a little bit of trash from the polish) effect it and make it start to backfire? I checked to see if all of the plug wires were tight and engaged, they are. Could I have done something else to make it backfire?
Surely having it port & polished effected the tune on it? I let it idle for about minutes and it would backfire about every 15 to 20 seconds, it did seam to be getting further between BURPS but I shut it down for fear of f_ _ kin somethin up. Any ideas?

You have the TPS, MAF, and IAC plugged in? Does the IAC motor have the o-ring in it? (top sensor on the throttle body)
That's a strange problem, but I wouldn't blame it on the lube. A little lube never hurt nobody.

Thanks Blur, I figured it out. I removed my spark plugs during all of this to facilitate more room, when I put one of them back in I must have over toqued I guess, the ceramic body was cracked allmost all the way around. I replaced all of the plugs and she runs like a top. Thanks for the input!!
