So check out this video of my car idle and tell me if you hear anything abnormal.
Towards the end of the clip I give it gas and it starts to idle rough. That is the main problem I am having with my car. Any info would be appreciated. I'm going to start by doing a basic tune up.

LOL I started not to comment. But Im gonna go out on a limb and say that your problem is in your face. Get back at us AFTER you swap out the cap, rotor, wires, and tighten down that battery terminal. Couldnt tell where the spark was coming from. But if its sparking like that then its most likely your problem.

Make sure you zip tie all of your plugs also.

lmao thanks guys. I was in a mad rush to start my car so I didn't even tighten the terminals.... That's where the spark was from.

I have this other weird problem too. If I leave my car parked, there is something thats drowning the battery out... I'll come out and my car will be dead. Maybe it could be a cheap alarm I had installed. I know that the alarm is tied to the fuse box under the steering wheel. Any ideas?
