Hey guys been lurking around here collecting all sorts of info over the years. But now I have a question that has me worried so I figured I better sign up and ask.
I did a plug change on Saturday and let my brother take the car out to see how it ran. He sprayed it once and I heard it backfire when he did it. He came back to the house and I looked over everything and could not figure out what caused the backfire.
So on Sunday I popped the hood to change the oil, and I instantly noticed the #7 cylinder plug wire was just hanging off the coil pack. It was not connected to the plug.
Do you think I could have hurt my motor? I am out of town for a few days so I have not pulled the plug to look at it.

I gave Nitrous Outlet a call this morning. They basically think the same thing. That if the plug wasn't firing then it probably just went right out the exhaust and nothing is hurt. I will pull the plugs when I get back into town Tuesday or Wednesday and post them up for you guys to look at.

I even double checked with Chris and he was thinking the same as I was. He was thinking that it was just unburned fuel in the tail pipes. Report back to us and let us know what you find.
