Damn thing is missfireing when hot.
Cold it runs great. I got it warm and started unplugging sensors to no avail. It smells gassy, but have no fuel in the FPR vaccum line. Plugs/wires only have about 4000miles on them. No check engine on.
Its not actually dieing but is running way to rough/nutless to only be missing on one cylinder. It will hit 8 intermittantly. Would a coil cause this? I dont recall ever having a coil cause one to miss, usually they just quit till it cools, same with the TFI.
Im going to go yank a coil from the junkyard to see if it makes a difference before i spend 50 to replace it, just to see if it gets better.
Is there anything else i should look for?
