    Rough Idle/Misfire After Changing Plug

    Had the valve cover gasket done as when I checked the spark plugs there was some oil. Got it back an it was fine, decided to change the plugs as they may have been bad from leaking oil. Took old plugs out, some had oil on them, looked dirty over. Changed them and now has terrible idle misfire and will barely idle. No idea what happened, changed plugs again. Same symptoms and now will barely start. What now?

    If anyone ever comes across this for an M44 it was the spark plug wires. There is a removal tool for a reason which is so one doesn't damage the wires or be more gentle.
