Check fuel injector harnesses. Sometimes they get loose and the injector won't fire.

Then after shaking a little bit, the harness will make good contact again and the car will run right.


Try shaking the harness with your fingers wwith the engine idling and see. If the engine starts misfiring then you know the harness is loose.

^ what he said. there's also a tsb about where the injector power wire branchs off in the engine harness and ends up going to all 4 cylinders where the connection comes loose or becomes corroded.

great advice @ g6
