Lightbulb Spark Plug Question

I put a colder plug in it so that I could spray. I put autolite 103's because I have always had good luck with them. I also put a set of new wires on it. Just stock wires. Now I am getting a miss. I was just wondering if that would affect it? They are also gapped at like .036-.037 . Thanks in advance.

Anybody? If it helps the miss will clear up if you get on it . I confirmed this with our scan tool. Do I need a better ignition, maybe a msd to boost the spark or something ?

Make sure that all of the plug wires are all the way on.

My car did the same thing, it would miss. Popped the hood and felt around and two wires were loose. I plugged them back all the way in. Now the car runs perfect.

Could be a cracked spark plug as well, but check to make sure the wires are on as tight as possible.

Check to make sure you did not crack any of the porslen on the plugs when you installed them.

I checked all the plug wires. Good and all the plugs look good. So I don't know.
