GP1138 Posted January 9, 2005 Report Share Posted January 9, 2005 well...just an update on mine...i replaced the first coil (i think its 1 & 4) anywayz...the problems still there...so, i guess now i get to put that coil on and move to the next one...i've also noticed the problem is getting worse/more noticable in the cold... :? If that doesn't solve it then go to the junkyard and get yourself a tested ICM and two more coilpacks, save yourself some money. No need to pay upwards of $200 for this...

No need to pay upwards of $200 for this... well, what i'm doing is swapping the new coil pack around to try and find a bad coil...although, i'm not totally sure the problem is even ignition (because i have no misfires recorded on my scanner)...i'm just trying it cause some other people on here have mentioned it being a coil...so, i'm HOPING it will fix it when i hit the right one...

Keep at it, and post here when you're done. I read through the thread this time, but maybe I missed it: Have you already replaced plugs and wires?

I read through the thread this time, but maybe I missed it: Have you already replaced plugs and wires? yeah, that was actually one of the first things i did...i replaced plugs, wires, fuel filter...i've added lotz of fuel system/injector cleaner...and havent noticed a difference...FWIW: the plugs are AC DELCO platnium...the $7 each ones...
