Ok my plugs are like, iono over a year old, and I dont think their gaps are .043, they aare probably about .035 - .040, would this cause a rough idle? I got all my stuff togethter, vac leaks fixed, TIMED with a light to 10*. It idles about 750 on start and after a min kinda leans down to 650, then 600, car idles a little rough, nothing major just a little uneasy, not smooth, spark plugs the cause? It also smells a little rich, how can I resolve this? if My 02 sensor is bad, will that do that?

Also my throwout bearing is sounding like its leaning onto the clutch cover thingy, um, rear end is still jacked up, is that why? Im seeing in my head it kinda just leaning down onto it.

id blame the 02 sensor first then the plugs. that gap is on the high side of things.
replace 02
get new plugs (especially if you are running coppers) and gap to around 28ish

as for the tranny thing..... dunno really.
