99 LS AT. Ignition problem?
NIGHTMARE ON GLEN ST.
Alright, so im driving home from work, not pushing her hard, just cruisin. I turn onto the my street, and all of a sudden, she starts spuddering! I wanted to pull her over right there, but i was about 1/4 mile from home, it was around midnite, and this aint the friendliest nieghborhood. Anyway, the CEL was goin nuts, and the poor car had almost no power as i eased her home.
I checked the CEL codes, and it says i have a misfire on 1&3. I really hope this is something i can fix myself, cuz im BROKE.:wtf: :wtf:

well you could get yourself ngk v power plugs for 1.99 at checker/kraggen.. also get the distributor rotor and give it a mild tune up.. it could be that the plugs have been in there too long and are fouled up.
