I have a 94 camaro z28 5.7l 6spd and it has a miss just wondering if its a spark plug or a wire

Question

the car runs good but every once in a while it will act up and miss then it will go i was just wondering if any one had a problem like this and could let me know wat it is

Answer 1

Uh, let me roll out my crystal ball.........................Oh yeah, Ball says: Take vehicle to a reputable repair shop to have the problem properly diagnosed because it could be caused by a number of things including fuel delivery, wiring connectors, computer malfunctions, coolant leaks into the cylinder, coolant intrusion into the ignition distributor, defective ignition distribution cover, crankshaft sensor, and so on.  

Answer 2

to determine if it is a spark plug wire, what you can do if the wires are readily accessible, you can pull them off the plugs one at a time, and the engine tone and idle should change, if it doesn't with the wire you pulled off, then that is the plug wire that is bad. also checking in this style can also help to see if a plug wire was not "snapped" onto the plug correctly. when you install a plug wire you should feel a little snap, if not then the end of the plug wire that fits over the tip of the plug itself is out of adjustment.

Answer 3

check the plug(1 ata time)then the wire(1 at a time) then the coil pack

probally a foiuled plug though

goodluck

Answer 4

more than likely it could be a plug wire,they normaly act up when the eng. is hot or if it has been ran hard for a while,i have also had that happen when the car was under a load,(going up a steep hill,in a high gear)" example" have you ck'd your coil paks? they are bad about getting hot and brking dwn.if it keeps up,take it to the dealer and have it put on the code machine.

Answer 5

could be either, you are going to have to raise the hood and check.
