I recently Seafoamed my rig (2.4 '05 export with 55.000 miles), changed engine oil with fresh Amsoil ,
added new Autolite iridium XP sparkplugs #5263, which is what I have been running on for the last 30.000 miles
and for no apparent reason decided to upgrade my ignition wires to Livewires and my coil pack to a Screaming Demon, form Performance distributors

Ever since the change my engine had not been working at 100% but I could not point my finger on what was wrong.
It seemed confused form time to time and would sort of stall at high speeds in 6th gear.
I recently got a P0420 code and to cut a long story short, I ended up taking everything apart to find this on #3:
Livewire
AutoliteXP
I have been running the jeep for less than 500 miles since the change.
So, my question is, was it a faulty plug or a faulty wire that caused this?
And for those of you that might think water got into the engine, the answer is no. I have not washed the engine or crossed any rivers since my last plug change.
