    If you have a misfire your service engine light will start flashing and then stay on.

      i replaced my spark plugs today and shop teacher said they were fine.
      old- ngktr55ix iridium
      new- bosch super copper core.

      i didnt cure my problem. wires looked fine
      he said to put my car on an engine anyliser
      friend said my injectors need cleaning which is probalby what it is.

      the symptoms on my car are that it only misfires under load and sometimes in idle but it doesnt throw a code. any ideas?

        Is your service engine soon light on? If it is you need to get it scanned to see what codes it's throwing. You can get your car scanned for free at Autozone. That might help you find out what's wrong.
