  • new miss after tune-up

    ok,I have a 92' lumina z34 3.4l.My problem is this,first I re-gapped the plugs,at 45,(had a slight miss,so thought that this might help) they had them gapped between 50 and 60,got that problem fixed,After doing this I replaced the plug wires and..replaced two plugs in the rear middle and drivers side,were and they still are missing,swapped the injectors out and it still misses on the same two 2 back plugs (middle and drivers side,new plugs in those 2 cylinders.new wires.new ecm.what could possibly be the problem?any help here would be greatly appreciated.thanks in advance.
    stumped! I also checked the timing belt,looks pretty new,so I know it hasn't jumped time...I also had to replace a coil pack,it is just those two plugs (middle and driver side rear).I also did a ohm check on all injectors,all are real close to each other so it doesn't seem to be the injectors.possibly the plug and wires going to the injectors?need some help..please....oh by the way it ran pretty good B4 I re-gapped the plugs,just had a slight miss.

    Occasional miss, or are those two cylinders DEAD?

    Plug wires routed and connected properly?

    What is cranking compression?

    LIM gaskets replaced, or original?

      I have had plugs go bad if they are torqued to tight.

        I had one develop a crack in the ceramic inside the plug causing internal arcing after a mid-high rev run in a minivan. It was fine up until that run.

          that was a bad coil pack replaced it and it has ran fine up to now,when the crankshaft sensor went out,now it's doing the same thing,refuses to start,no fire at the plug wire,new ECM,wires,plugs.New crankshaft sensor.
