Another rough idle/acceleration post
I just searched for about 2 hours and didn't see anything like my situation.
I just installed a new cap, coil, rotor, wires, plugs, and module with all Accel stuff. Now the car will start right away with no problems, but the idle is 'slightly' rough. When accelerating, there is a noticeable loss of power almost like one cylinder isn't firing. I know that injectors are possible, but since it happened IMMEDIATELY after changing the ignition stuff, what would be the most likely cause? I hear people talking about their aftermarket modules pretty bad. Does this sound like it?
