Message When the car runs on all 6 it feels smooth. Idle is nice, sitting in the car it just purrs...

When it starts to misfire it sputters out the right side exhaust, puffs air, and I think it only hits about half the time. If you are behind the car (I have a genie exhaust) you can hear a puff puff sound, almost like a click, but more a shuffle or a puff.

Sitting in the car it doesn't quite feel like it's on 5 cylinders (bouncing and shaking like a crackwhore) but it doesn't feel smooth either. It's somewhere in between.

When I pull the coil pack on that cylinder rpm's dip a little, but it's not as drastic as when I do it on another cylinder.

You can kind of feel a misfire through the pedal at low rpm's too... just not smooth... kind of like a jerky feel.

Stage something, 14 PSI.

Any Ohio Zer's hit me up on AIM, mkddoc or PearlS14OH. Email at Mkddoc@aol.com
