bogging?
I changed my valve cover gasket today.
took off the spark plug wires so I can remove the cover.
I put everything back on, and now car makes a rumble sound and feels extremely slow.
any ideas?
I'm getting spark on all cylinders
car is a 95 civic vx with a 95 gsr motor.
driven daily without a prob for 2yrs..and now this happens...
help anyone?

sounds like firing order to me...
In other words... you have your spark plug wires in the wrong order..
But then again I dont think it would start if you put them in the wrong order.. did you f up the gap horribly on your plugs?

Yeah, but the "spark" could be going out the side of the boot and into your valve cover.
