Rough Idle after spark plug change 700

posted by  someone claiming to be John Parker on  Mon Nov 11 03:54 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Changed plugs on friday, put in new Bosch platinums checked gap all were at correct gap. After the switch i didnt notice anything immediately but when pulling out of my drive a few hours later the car died. The RPM's go between 700-1000. It happens at idle and under acceleration up to about 1800 rpms unless i give it alot of gas then either it doesnt happen or maybe i just cant tell. The weird part of it all is that overall performance at higher revs is better after changing the plugs. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated....
