Weird misfiring problem.

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

My car is a '92 gsx, mostly stock except for a small 16g, and a MBC. It first happened on saturday, and has happened one more time since. Both times it happened, I went to a store, and on the way there, everything was perfectly fine. When I went to leave, it was idling very rough, and when I went to drive away, it was running like it dropped a cyllinder. I drove for a couple blocks, and it didn't go away, and turned on the CEL, so I pulled into a parking lot to check if something had come loose or something, but everything was perfect. By the time I got back into my car, the CEL had gone out, and it was running normally. I looked everything over, and everything seems normal, so I have no idea what could be causing this. Does anyone have any suggestions?

have you look at my no starting problem.. I'm still trying to test the coil pack and power transistors looks like i might have to take it to a shop to find out what is really wrong.. MAP.. is not that far.. so I might just give them a call..

Your cars problems and mine could be related.. or similar issues.

Transistor pack, coil pack, plugs/wires.

Go outside(when its dark), Start your car and spray some amonya(SP?) water(or windex I believe) on the plug wires. Amonya water "helps" the plug wires arc. If you see arcing then replace the wires.

Just touch the wires while the car is running, if you get shocked you should replace the wires, a lot more fun then spraying some windex water at them.

Haha! I did that once, it scared the crap outta me.

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

They're brand new Accel wires, so I doubt that's the problem. I'll look into the coil pack/transistor pack.

bring it up and we well get it fixed

My car behaved exactly like this when the MAS plug had some corrosion on the pins. A little contact cleaner took care of the problem.

Ok, I've changed out the resistor pack and coil, checked the mas plug, and the problem is still there. I'm thinking my ecu is in the process of taking a shit. Does anybody know of any other things that could possibly be causing this?
