HELP

[Silverbird2002]

A few days ago I got my car back from the shop, A few things that needed attition no big deal. One of the things I wanted them to look at was a chattering sound. They said they looked at all the heat shields but could not find where it was comming from. Also my car when first started it would run relly rough on start up but then would go away. They noticed what the car was doing and cleaned the injectors, Sence then I got my car back and now I have a check engen light that came on and when the car is under a load it studders and bogs down bad, when you give the car gas the check engen light blinks. I was told that a blinking check engen light was a misfire. I changed the plugs and the wires and it's still doing it. I'm unsure what else it may be. Can anyone help me out here???????????

Thanks Brian

i have no idea. but if your ses light is blinking DO NOT drive your car. unless your on the way to the shop. that is like the highest alart your car can give you to tell you that something is wrong with out just blown up! hehe

bring it to autozone and have the codes scanned. The flashing check engine light signifies a catalyst damaging missfire. Could be the coils or ignigion control module(icm) The coils are mounted on top of the ICM. If you wanted, so you didn't have to drive your car, pull the ICM and coils and bring them to auto zone and have them tested. They should have the proper equipment to do so. That should get you closer to your problem...i hope.

Blinking SES simply means that the missfire detected is severe enough to cause damadge to the catylyst. It doesn't mean that your car will blow up.

Get it scaned. See what you come up with. But I would higly recomend a fuel pressure test.

Also, DO NOT take off your coils and module to test them at autozone. All it is is a simple ohm test that will find an open in teh circut. The test it useless and a waste of time.

Start with fuel, Make sure that all wires are on the correct coil towers and cyls, check for sparking coming out of each tower, make sure no wires are burnt.

On a waste spark system because of the design of the coil, when one cyl it missing it will cause it's sister cyl to miss because it's jumping all of teh spark energy on the dead cyl. Could be anything.
