  • #2 missing at idle

    i got a 92 L 5spd, i had the fuel injector of this cylinder replaced, the plug wire, its a new distributor cap, and new spark plug. it feels like its all 4 when im going, but it misses at idle and makes it rough.
    Any idea's/comments on what could cause it? If it helps the compression of that one cylinder was 145.

    have you checked all cylinders? did you change all the plug wires or just the one? is it possible that you have a second faulty injector causing the miss?

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

      Some typical problems could be:

      Check the VAF for a loose or dirty connector; also, and all of the ducts from the VAF to the throtle body.

      Check for corrossion on the hi tension wire from the coil tot he center tower of the dist cap; specifically the tower at the coil.
