No, i was thinking the crank sensor as i put a new cam sensor in 3 months ago,it shudders when its driving and sometimes there feels like there is no acceleration.  There also seems to be smoke blowing out the exhaust at times :-?

Did you clean the breathers and replace the cam cover gasket when you replaced the plugs and dis pack?

Hi all,  I got the new coil pack today and it drove fine for twenty minutes then it started shaking and shuddering.  Once its over three thousand rpm the shuddering stops so it seems to be when its starting off and up until about 40mph then it stops.  I was thinking about the spark plugs I put in they are bosch spark plugs would they be the problem? or would the crank sensor be going??????  Two days ago I tried to start it three times this happened and there was nothing then it started on the fourth go.  This is putting my head away PLEASE HELP :(
