Hello guys looking for some help. I dropped my car off at a transmission shop 2 months ago get the trans rebuilt. Before I drop the car off the engine was tip top. When I pick the car up the engine was a flop it was sputtering had no acceleration no throttle response I made it to my street and the car died at the end of the Street. I have a 5.0 turbocharged. I noticed when I got it in my garage finally that I had a nipple broken rubber nipple on the vacuum tree. I replaced that try to start it same thing. I pulled the plugs plugs are black and soaked in gas. I have cleaned out the plugs reinstalled them but have not started the vehicle yet. Does a turbocharged need to have the spark plugs gapped. Any help would be nice live in Taylor Michigan anyone out there Mobile mechanic that takes cash looking for help thank you
