HELP! GSL-SE running like a V6 missing a Cyl
Had this car for a few years and have come to understand a fair bit about the fuel, ignition system .etc.... never heard this before...never had any engine problems :-(
Car back fired Bad and then "miss" appeared .. drove home slowly under powered.
Can you tell me what you think it is ... and what is the best solution..
Thanks in advance

I wouldn't jump the gun here until further tests are done. Actually, I had a 6 cylinder car that acted the same way you are describing and ended up be a cracked distributor cap that I couldn't see until I started the car in a dark room/garage. While this was happening I still had good spark at the plugs.
