Yesterday on my way to work out started a dead miss. Limped it to work and I thought it had a fouled plug. The valve guides are shot and if it sits idle for a few it starts pumping out smoke. Limped it back home, started to remove the intake and I saw that wire 3 had an arc. So it turns out I drove it about 80 miles with an arc. I moved it so it couldn't arc, started it and still had a miss. So my question is, did I fry the 3-6 coil pack?

Still has a no code misfire. I know the coils are firing. BUT I can take the plugs to each coil, reverse them, and it runs exactly the same. The only thing I can think of is crankshaft or camshaft positioning sensor. But that's a total shot in the dark. I have no clue.

Have you even taken a compression test? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
