Re: skip new street fire new wires n plugs

First, you didn't mention a cap and rotor? Second, you should have the tps voltage up at .54 or even a little higher.

Re: skip new street fire new wires n plugs

I set mine at .60-.65 It gives a little better throttle response and doesn't throw any codes. As far as having a miss, replace the cap and rotor and check over all your wiring on the ignition box. I'm curious as to how the engine ran before you started throwing parts at it?

Re: skip new street fire new wires n plugs

If you are not running any aftermarket chip in the ECM, you could bump the timing up to 8 and try it. Are you disconnecting the EST wire on the firewall when you adjust the timing?

Re: skip new street fire new wires n plugs

Re: skip new street fire new wires n plugs

I'm sure it has a bunch of carbon build up on the brass also.
