Plug gap

Actually I drove it around for a little bit b/c the light didnt come on at first, it just felt a little rough. I did it one at a time too but I took off all the wires first and mixed them up putting them back.

I made this mistake when I install the 1-Step colder plugs when I finished my Vortech install last week. The code that came up on the OBII was a multiple cylinde misfire. On the wires connecting to the coil packs you will see a white paper with the cylinder # on it. They should be in the order starting from the passenger front side: 1 - 3 - 5 then to the driver side front: 2 - 4 - 6. Hope this helps.
Well I went to Adavance Auto this morning had the code cleared and so far so good!! I have around 30 miles on it since then with about 4 start ups. So I am not out of the dark just yet but we will see. I wonder if it was the e.c.u. adjusting to 93 octane or something....I don't know. I still want to put the colder plugs in just to be on the safe side but I don't want to run into this problem again.

I am going through the same thing right now. I have had SES light come on a few times in the last 2 weeks saying random mulitple misfire only under high boost. I was heading home today and I the car started missing 1 cylinder completely. I thought I had lost my motor. I limped her home and just finished doing a compression test and they all seem to be in spec. So now I am hoping it is narrowed to the coil packs or bad gas. I will check my plug connectors like Kyle said and go from there. Still keeping fingers crossed though. Rich
Just an FYI, that narrower plug gaps arent needed with our ignition system. With coil over pkug, the Nissan ignition system is as good as it gets.
I've seen 580ft/lbs of trq on a load based dyno, without any hint of spark blow out. I recommend running the factory gaps now.
