nope still runngin OBD2 because they jump the ECU at inspection in jersey.
Anyway i just started working on it again at the miss is only happening at idle. and it's running lean at idle also. When it's moving it doesn't miss.

This definitely sounds like some fucked up pistons. Compression test it, I'm putting $5.00 on owned ringlands. Let us know

The miss is probably the imbalance in compression between cylinders. I'm upping to $20.00 paypal

Re: mis firing cyl 1,3 and 4

Well i took the day off of work so i could figrue out what was going on with my car. Well i did a compression test and heres the results.

Cyl 1. 190
cyl 2. 70
Cyl 3. 180
Cyl 4. 195

So this means my rings are shot right? So now it's time to buy new pistons and rings right? Let me know what brand / model i should go with. I should buy rods while i'm at it.

I'm only looking for a daily 250 whp
