Misfire developed while parked for a few days
Have an 03 5-Speed Mach with a misfire. I parked it last weekend running fine. fired it up today and there it is. Causing slightly rough idle (Shaker helped me see that ) and slight stumble at throttle tip in and of course rougher acceleration. It's not showing any codes. Car only has about 42,000 miles on it.
Only Mods to car are: SCT with BAMA tune. JLT CAI ported exhaust manifolds and BBK full exhaust. This is my first 4V OHC engine. The most advanced thing I had before it was an 86 2.3 turbo 86 SVO. What usually causes this? I am guessing a coil? What would you do? Thanks! |

Re: Misfire developed while parked for a few days
Fixed problem. It was a coil. Connector on coil side was damaged and repaired badly. Guy who had it before me must have been trying to save a buck. Bought a new coil and 15 minutes late Mach 1 no longer has a cough.
In addition to a cold air intake. I am declaring the shaker hood a misfire warning indicator. |
