Check fuel pump pressure to make sure it is getting enough fuel. Also, if the check engine light is on, have the computer scanned to see if there are trouble codes. Most parts stores will do it for free. As far as the fuel pressure check, go to our homepage under the DIY section for directions and a video.

Usually not. The plugs won't cause a high idle.
