Could be a miss...



sorry... What do you mean, feels like a miss? like a quick light lurch almost? not often, but rarely?
how is the spark for the car? like, how new are plugs, wires, etc? Wires routed in stock location, or zip tied in place? (might be too close together etc..)

hahaha i was really tired when i wrote that. Should have been more descriptive.

I just need to know what all causes a misfire.

Its exactly like you describe it though.
I have msd 8mm wires so is it possible they arent insulating enough to be that close together (alot of them are zip tied)
