Usually when you change the plugs that you also should change the distributor cap and rotor as well. When you changed the plugs with hopefully with the Alero specifications type manufacturer spark plugs that you have to also change the timing belt too is why your idling is low. All spark plugs have a gap in them so your car special plugs should too. You might have the wrong spark plugs with the wrong gap in them so you can ask autozone for the gap specs for your year, make and model plus you can buy the right spark plugs there too. The spark gap will change the timing of car depends on the gap.
Your Pacifica 2004 has a 3.5L engine 6 cylinder, you will need six spark plug's, the spark plug gap is .050", make sure you gap the spark plug's before you install them, hope this was very helpful.
My spark plugs are on the top of the motor, take off the individual coil then pull up - this is the wire to the plug. Stick in the wrench and take out I have a 99 tracker 2.0 liter
Unfortunately the check engine light could be caused by hundreds of things and yet it could have something to do with your changing of the plugs. Do me a favor and take the car to your local auto parts store and they will check the code for the engine light for you for free. Bring that code back here and I will help you figure out what is causing the light and the slugish engine. Sorry for your problem but I'm sure I can help you get it fixed. Thanks for using FixYa!
when you open your hood the plugs are facing the fire wall ... the pipes facing you are not the exhaust hedders they are the intake pipes from the air cleaner..
