    Misfiring

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I just replaced my coilpacks and plugs because my car was misfiring. I put bosche plugs and sti coilpacks in, My car was alright for a couple of weeks but it just started again. It was low on fuel so i just filled the tank and it seems a little bit better. My question is could low fuel make my car misfire or is there some hidden problem.
    Thanks
    Jacob

    Why did you use STi coilpacks? Low fuel shouldn't be an issue especially if it ran fine for a few weeks.

    Re: Misfiring

    Could this be a fuel pump issue?
