Switch coil pack two (middle pack) with coil pack 1 (front coil pack, miss should move to cy 1 and 6

Coil packs switched (front most and middle). Drove it around the block w/ code reader attached, no codes pulled. However, the stumble is still slightly there. If it doesn't pull a code while driving this week, I'll probably let it go for a few weeks more. Need to start on the LCA job

[Bob98SR5]

drove again today, still an occasional stumble here and there but no codes. I'm going to change out the plugs and see what happens.

I will also soak the LCA parts with PB Blaster. Tomorrow the work will begin.

Your misfire issue sounds like mine! I'm starting to lean towards getting my injectors cleaned, I've already tried all of the "easy" stuff like plugs (2 different sets now), wires, TPS, MAF clean, ohmed coils, seafoam, etc.

brian,

oh man, that's not good news. the injectors aren't cheap, right?

[mastacox]

It's worse, they aren't made any more. It's a real PITA to diagnose because one day it runs great, the next it's misfiring all the way to work regardless of throttle input and idling lean... I'd like to think it could be my fuel pump which isn't terribly expensive to replace, but that would be causing misfires on several cylinders rather than a specific two (or one).

I talked to Gadget today (he was kind of a dick) and he said that he's never seen one of these injectors get plugged or fail; I'm dubious. If one of them is bad he said he might have an extra or two lying around, but wasn't exactly motivated to find out for me. Other than that my options are try and find a used set of the 318's, supra 305 injectors (probably used since they're $125 ea. new), or go back to stock and get 7th injector kit ($$$, plus I have to re-modify my injector plugs back to OEM then).

I need to do a compression test this weekend but I'm really hoping that ain't the problem I might take a spray bottle to the wires any way just to be sure I don't have arcing anywhere, listen to the injectors with a mechanic stethoscope, check and re-check the connections to the coil and igniter, and do a free-air calibration on my O2 sensor.

Money pit!

witchhunter performance if I recall can rebuild your injectors for about 20 a pop.
