Might have a slight vibe
Hi guys, a couple of months ago I tinkered with Iridium plugs as in I was worried that they were not there in my car, so I took them out and they were. So, I put them back in but I didn't put the plugs in all the way so the engine was misfiring. I know it was pretty lame of me. But, I went to an auto parts store and a friend put Iridiums in, a couple weeks later I had the regular NGK V power plugs put in which were in there originally. So, I feel that I have a slight vibration on my steering wheel when I am stopped at a traffic light, is it due to that misfire possibly? That was a couple of months ago. I know that at the dealer they check the idle, so maybe I should set up an appointment with them?
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

the motor will run really bad with a misfire, a little vibration may be a motor mount. listen to the exhaust......do you hear any missing? always listen to your exhaust. and give it a little smell too. it will tell you all you need to know

Lightshow, thanks a lot! Man, without you this board would be nowhere! The exhaust doesn't sound bad. I wouldn't be surprised if sooner or later I need to replace a motor mount. It has 118,000 miles and before I got the car it was driven hard in the city of Chicago. I know it is due for the 116,500 service, so I have always had a good experience from the Honda Dealer. Thanks once again!
