Car misfire but srange

10-19-2004, 07:43 PM

Okay, i replaced wires, plugs, coils, new fuel filter, and cleaned injectors.

Still i continue to get a misfire, and its always on cylinder 6.

I gapped plugs to .035

The car runs fine at night but when the engine heats up. It runs crappy and sometimes causes a misfire. Atleast once a night it misfires when i drive to school.

What the hell could this be? is .035 bad for copper bosch?

are you getting a misfire code on cylinder 6, or are you taking an educated guess?

did you maintain the stock routing on your plug wires?

did you replace all that recently? have you inspected it since to make sure all your connections are still positive?

Stock gap for a 3.8 is .60, why do you have yours gapped so low?
