Hi I'm a bit stuck with this problem.
I have a bad miss-fire at about 2000 to 2600 RPM. Worse when hot. Probably needs a top end job, (slight oil in coolant, oil clean) but I can't afford that at the moment.
Worse under load, seems to go away over 3000 RPM, but I don't want to have to rev that much.
Manual V6, new fuel pump, new injectors, throttle body cleaned. (Fuel return line in tank has no clamp, as I couldn't get the fitting off to replace that one)
Coils seem OK.
I am thinking plugs or fuel, or CAS, or temp sensor, air sensor, but it runs fine at idle (bit of high idle though, then settles).
Also starts missing after cornering, which I think points to fuel?
Fuel filter done a few 100k ago, but I suspect it might have picked up some dirt from the pump change.
No error codes. (was thinking of getting ALDL cable, but no codes with old paper clip)
