DAMN IT!!!!!!! Miss is back. Now showing a code. Parts store guy read the code....scanner said miss in "any cylinder"
All plugs are new, all coil packs now are new. Ran like s scalded dog Wednesday and now I'm back to square one. I guess its time to get it scoped somewhere to see what the hello is going on. Can anyone recommend a good shop?

Thanks for reading my rant!!

What gas are you running? You do know it takes 93, right?

I have run QuikTrip premium in my cars for years with no problems whatsoever.
My guess is this is an electrical problem, possibly in the wiring harness for the coil packs. The car ran GREAT on Wednesday of this week, then started to miss again.

FIXED!!!!!! Brenden at Expert Car Care traced my miss to a frayed wire in the wiring harness. He spliced in and soldered new wire. She's running great!!!
I highly recommend this guy.
