52787, still missing help
Posted by emc, Jun-07-03 06:26 AM
ive been trying to track down a miss. ive changed the fuel filter and pcv, plugs and wires, and the coilpack. in the begining it was only at low rpm now its across the band. i have the manual but havent much time to invest. short of taking it to the dealer what else should i look at first.

come on every time i change something it will go away only to return i know your sick of this question. i have no vac leaks the plugs are burning clean and i can find no problems, checked tps, map sensor, when people talk about cleaning the well do they mean where the plug drops into the head. if i cant get this figured out im going to have to give my wife the 1g as a daily driver and dont want to. the only code i ever get is 43 and only during serious missing.
thanks

It really does sound like you've done all the normal stuff. Cleaning the wells - make sure that oil isn't building up in the spark plug wells. Is it? That's caused by bad VC seals. If you do have oil in there - replace the VC gaskets and spark plugs.

Check your ground cables. Make sure that they have good contact to the engine/body. Maybe try some fuel injector cleaner. Check the timing marks - see if they line up. Also, if you can, check your compression.
