Default car sounds like a tractor

the story issss.. i went for a drive, cel came on, jumped it, code 7.. got on it a little bit on the way home to get through traffic.. my car hesitated at 6k, and started sounding like a tractor and it sounded like i was hitting 2step everywhere (whcih i thought thats what it was at first) the motor is a built ls vtec.. i replaced my tps, set it, adjusted my idle, and it still sounds like this.. hopefully the video works. yes, its a video of a video. ingenious.

check spark plugs, fuel injectors/fuel pressure, take off intake to see if it is dirty?

Sounds like a bad valve to me? place a peice of paper in front of the exauset Tip and see if it "sucks" in any air if the paper gets slammed in ,
then an exaust valve is bad and is staying open on intake stroke

Just a thought but from the sound I think thats what it is.

I say valve and possibly valve seals if there is oil on the plugs.

do you know how ot do a compression check? I can walk you through a leakdown test, that will DEFINATELY help diagnose the problem and what might be causing this. If you have an air compressor (even a small one) I can show you how to build one for like 20-30 bucks, or u can wait till i coem home in two weeks

did you make sure the gap was set correctly on your new plugs? and always make sure the wires go to the same place blah blah, have you checked your timing? That can make a car run like yours is too.

Listen up Noob,
To start Im not your buddy
Dont ask questions and then get smart *** when I give you advice.
I tried to help and you were a jackass about it so
have fun with your tractor

""
hey buddy.. it was idleing. thanks anyway. you are a bit antsy. thanks for your help. goodbye.
anyways, changed my plugs and wires today.. the car doesnt even want to start now.. but with the old plugs and wires it starts and sounds gay
""

Throw more money at it
Or like I said use the paper if thats too ghetto go get a leakdown test,
Why are you buying parts for your car when you dont even know whats wrong with it?

Find problem then fix it

Damn noobs... guy's trying to help you and you can't even give him respect.

Figure out the problem yourself if you aren't willing to listen to other people's ideas/thoughts. If you don't want someone's opinion, don't ask for it.
