Title: engine miss??????
Post by: mss94jx on November 19, 2005, 04:57:24 PM
I have a 94 kick, the other day started to miss badly. I changed out the plugs (old ones were like new) wires/cap/button look brand new too. Test drove it, worked like new, 300km later, started doing it again. Any ideas?????

Once you are past the plugs , wires, rotor, distributor cap, things can get rather spendy.


As a first cheap try, I would run a can of seafoam through the gas tank, maybe some seafoam through the brake booster vacuum line and see if that helps. If the miss is steady/constant on the same cylinder and the engines lacking power I doubt the seafoam will help.

Could also try doing a compression check just to be sure the valves,rings etc.. are good.

Beyond the simple things, it gets more expensive the further you go :(
Fuel injectors could be dirty/clogged or worn out. ECM could be going out as well. Too many things to list. Like I said earlier, start with the basics, which you did, then seafoam, compression check, check the timing etc...

Check the valve adjustment
