My old EK had a intermitent CEL and bog. Restart and it was fine. Come to find last week the conversion harness has a loose wire. Moral is to check that ---- bag harness you have. If I remember correctly your cars harness was an abortion at best.

BTW, Q31 controls the EVAP Purge Control Solenoid...---- if you need that, for emissions only if you even bother to hook it up.

Seen lots of them fried when someone plugs the PCS into the wrong sensor...

Lots of things to check...coil, ignitor, plug wire resistance.

Give it the wiggle test. Start the car, let it idle and start wiggling wires around, especially grounds (seems like you have a ground issue) and see where the motor starts acting funny or changes. Then narrow it down if that helps you find anything...
