The funny thing is it kicks off & on it doesn’t always flash it just recently happened I’m only asking for a second opinion

Joe

Does it run rough when it happens?

Jrod

If it flashes and doesn’t stay solid it can not pin point the cylinder that has a misfire a decent scanner with live feed data will show which is missing

Andrew

Change coil packs

Nathan

Does it misfire when the motor is cold, warm, or both?

NiccQuestion author

Nathan it just started happening a week ago I noticed it but couldn’t tell any difference n it’ll flash sumtimes n other times it won’t I’m going to clean the maf first than plugs ?

Krush

okay, but when it does, is the engine cold, or warmed up, or doesn’t matter and it has done it both ways?

NiccQuestion author

It doesn’t on a cold start it only does after it’s warmed up & I accelerate n we checced the maf & map on it n checced the wires n few plugs but I think it’s a bad plug tbh I’m going to get it scanned & find out what it reads

Omar

Spark plugs first don’t change the coils unless it pops up again, coils don’t usually go bad.

Don

Tune up and check coil on whatever cylinder that you have a misfire on

My 01 does the same thing, but the check engine light only flashes when I push the gas pedal

Kameron

Unplug coils 1 by 1 till you find the bad one
