Hi all

I was giving my car a service today and found a heap of problem
They were not bad, just inconvenient.
One of the issues was
One of the O rings that sit around the rear centre spark plug had failed which resulted in my spark plug hole being full of oil.
Any way , I disconnected the battery as I had to take the intake manifold off.
Did not realise that it was such a big job.
After fixing all the issues and outing it all back together,
I noticed that my traction control light was flashing all the time.
It will stop if I turn the traction control off.
Also seems to be a little sluggish .
Also noticed the head lights flickering a couple of times if that has anything to do with it.

Any ideas guys??
Any help is appreciated.

PS.

Can some one tell me me the correct order that the HT leads get connected.

I have a 1996 . Galant vr4 2.5 v6 twin turbo.

You probably missed putting a vacuum line back on for the TCL on the back of the throttle body. I've never disconnected the battery when doing the plugs - no need to.

Ground pins 1 and 4 on the OBD connector and see what the error comes up as.
