    Default NEED HELP!! engine missing.

    Hey guys. ive read a few threads on here and they havent really haelped. anyway i have a vs and it seems to misfire under load but runs fine at idle and has no problems turning over and never stalled.

    i took it to a mechanic thinking it was a coil pack problem (as i changed plugs and leads recently) and they told me that the CAS code came up. but my problem isnt consistent with a CAS issue?

    can anyone help me out?

    cheers.

    LOL!

    Fuel pump, fuel filter, dfi/coils, bad plugs, leads, fuel pressure reg, manifold leak. Just to name a few. Oh and change your CAS.

    ahahah i should have thought of something better for the title but oh well. its throwing up fault code 49 which is cam/crank angle sensor. but the mechanic recons its one of the coil packs so im gonna do some changes with a new coil pack and find the broken one and go from there because he recons a coil pack can throw up a fault code :S so yeah ill let everyone know how it goes.

    Coil packs can not set fault codes.

    CAS or wiring to it is faulty if setting codes.
