the car is a 95 t/a,it only has bbk shorties other than that its stock.i got the car for dirt cheap and it ran like crap.i just changed the plugs and wires,took the car out and it ran awesome,i was very happy and impressed.on my drive home from the shop the car started to break up very bad,it wouldnt rev over 2k without just popping out.i thought it might be the coil breaking up so i went to change it and found bare wire on the coil connecter,i repaired that and im still having the same problem.do you think it could still be the coil itself or something else?the only code the car throws is egr when your getting on the freeway.thank for all the help in advance

 

Plug wire might be burnt on the headers.

 

plug wires were just put on yesterday

 

it doesnt take long. that was the start of my recent nightmare that led to 2 new optis and a lot of busted knuckles.

 

plug wires are ran right and that is not the problem.now when the car still does the same thing(pops and bangs out under a load when warm)until the SES light comes on then it runs perfect.does that make sense to anyone?or has anyone ever had this problem before?

 

I believe the car goes into limp mode when certain codes are set so check the codes? If you only get the egr one than I'm stumped.

 

try the coil. i dobut its the problem but its worth a shot. sounds like its missing pretty good. my first thought was plug wires but u said they were ok so replace the coil and coil wire.

 

If it goes away when the MIL turns on and runs fine afterwards, then its not the ignition coil are you sure its an ignition problem or possibly a fuel sys problem?

 

i replaced the coil and still have the problem.it had a nasty miss befor i did the tune up on it but it didnt act like this so im not sure what to think of it.im starting to wonder if i got a bad opti or maybe its the maf.i have a spare maf laying around so im gonna try it and ill udate you guys.thanks for the help
