Some issues with my Sol
My '93 del sol is having some issues,
And I'm a bit in over my head, but I want to take the DIY approach, and make this a learning experience.
The problems are thus:
1) When slowing down from acceleration, the car makes this knocking noise.
(it sounds similar to a loose hupcap. It's not, I checked. I also checked the motor mounts.)
2) The car pulls to the right.
3) The ECL is on.
One of the recent things I've done to this car was a head gasket swap.
I popped the hood and it looked like one of the boots had a hole in it.
The boot is a bit longer, and had oil leaking from it.
I'm unsure of the name, as this is my first car, and I'm still learning.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Uh, the spark plug wire? Was it going into the engine?
