Changed plugs now won't run

[Boog2006]

Need some help!

2006 Trailblazer 4.2 137,xxx miles was throwing P0300 and P0304 codes, just changed plugs with new 41-103s and now it won't run. Cylinder one an 4 showed significant corrosion.

Check the spark plug closest to the fan. I had it where the coil pack was not connected correctly because of the plastic trim piece.

Will do thx

I'm headed to get a coil pack now to troubleshoot with...

 

[Boog2006]

Ok still need some help. Ditched coil pack four with a new coil...no change

Switched coil 1 with old coil 4 no change...when the engine died this time it actually puffed a little bit of what looked like blue smoke out the throttle body.

Ok put the intake resonator on and the truck runs...but idling at 800 -900 rpm...ideas thoughts?

Didn't mean for you to go get a new one what I meant was to make sure that it was seated properly. Did you have the battery disconnected? It might just be going thru a relearn.

Is the vac hose under the resonator that connects to the valve cover connected on both ends?

 

[Boog2006]

Here's what I found after thinking about your video. 2006 is different based on the location of the maf sensor...I put the intake resonator back on and the truck runs fine

Yeah I understand...I was thinking since I still had a miss I might have a coil bad anyway...I checked it before I installed the new one.

Wait so you're saying you were having problems because you didn't put the MAF back at first? Then when you put the resonator on, you put the MAF on, and therefore it works?

 

[Boog2006]

Nope...never UN hooked the MAF just removed the resonator...this pick shows how I was trying to run it.

I would disconnect the battery to reset the PCM and clean the throttle body out. I bet your PCM memory has the adjustments/advancements for those rusty spark plugs.

Also those new spark plugs were pre gapped right?

And just a tip even though I'm not familiar with the redesigned coilpacks; if there is a gasket on those coil packs, get some gasket maker and apply it so water doesn't leak down into the plugs again. I had a slight corrosion on the outside of the spark plugs but never on the inside.

Definitely had water down 1 and 4 spark plug wells. Notice the rust. You should replace the coils on those cylinders if they are in rough shape and keep misfiring or test bad. Misfiring like that will damage them
