Hmmm...unfortunately with an intermittent miss the old trick of just
unplugging the fuel injector for each cylinder and seeing which one makes no
difference in the way the engine runs won't work. This works great if you
can get the problem repeatable at idle.

Subject: [s-cars] Mistery miss
Greetings to all,
After I washed the engine bay on my 93, I developed a miss under load
consistent with moisture under the coil cover. It only does it when the car
is warmed up. If I ease the gas pedal, it goes away. In the past the miss
would go away after the engine gets dry and hot, but this one has persisted
for over 2 days now. All coil-to-plug connectors appear fine (no white
powdery signs of arching). I am suspecting a bad (or cracked) coil, since it
happened to me in the past. The problem is, how to find which coil is the
culprit? Any suggestions?
Regards,
Robert V
