Sup guys...breaking in my motor and all was fine yesterday. Today, driving into work notice a miss. Checked plug wires and they're all on tight. Brand new Opticrap so doubt its that. All I can think of is plugs. But gotta wait til done work for that. Whats your experience with misses?

Thanks.

 

Things I know of that can cause misses:

Plugs
Wires
Coil
Coil wire
Opti
ICM getting too hot
Bad O2s
vacuum leak
dirty TB and intake and combustion chambers

I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting.

 

Bet ya $6.24 that it a wire hit your header and is burnt.

 

Van... you're on it man, I just found it. #6 had jumped over the compressor and burnt on the header. Just enough to go through the rubber but not the white part. Pulled it back and runs fine now. Its a biyatch to change the pass side so I was wondering if I can just heat wrap it for now. They're are a week old too crap. Taylors.

 

Sorry to hear that. I burnt one on my Mac's. I plulled it back, but to no avail, it still stumbled. I went to autozone and bought cheapest wire set they had with lifetime guarantee and just replaced that one.

 

Well mine is back to normal since I pulled her back but I wonder if I'm losing anything power wise from it being like that?

 

I had plugs that were gone by only 35kmiles. I expected them to last 100k so i tried changing plug wires and the opti, which ofcourse didnt work.

After installing headers, my #1 problem has been the #6 wire, either cracking or burning.

 

yeah, primarily because the harness runs so close to the #2 exhaust tube. Everything else seems fine. Actually I'm glad it was just that though, being the new motor and all. Something I could just see...pull back....and its fine again. Like the poor dude with the stumbling problem. First thing that came to my mind was him.

 

S.J.S, I do accept Paypal and most credit cards.
