  • cylinder 6 misfire

    i'm new to this site, I got a 98 camaro with 60,000m and the ***** is already misfiring, I took it to the shop today and they said its cylinder 6, I really dont know what to check for he said to bring it back tommorrow in the morning let it sit to cool cause the 6th plug is hard to get to, what causes this? I just had engine tune up not even a month ago, plugs, wires fuel filter, cleaned plenum, whatever that is but it happens when the car gets hot on the highway, or sometimes when it gets wet, either way I dont know what the hell to look for

        it was the 6th wire, pretty much like you said the wire was resting on the intake manifold, got too hot and ate through the wire, I got it rerouted, if I had a way to lift up my car I would've saved 80 bucks

          Cool...congrats on finding the problem!

          Routing the spark plug wires too close to the manifold was a very poor design by GM.:spank:
