Message I have been over every inch of the car checking wire harness connections, ohm readings, plugs, splices for various piggy back items you name it. Today I remembered back to when it began to misfire and it was right after I filled the tank with race gas from a local station. Well, now I also remember that this place was selling karosene from the same tank all winter long. Do you suppose that could have been it? The misfire has slowly improved with the last three tanks of gas and I just put in some fuel injector cleaner today and the car woke up even more. It idles much smoother and just runs way better all around and it has not misfired once all day. Before on the first tank of race gas there were a couple of moments when I nearly stalled because I was running on three cylinders. It was really bad! I think it was just contaminated race gas...
