Picked up a nice Red/Black 93 the other day with a small handful of minor items to fix. The engine is missing, from idle on up while not under load. While driving, it is not really apparent, so it might not be missing while under load but can't tell for sure.
I have experienced missing in other cars with the exact opposite problem, where it misses under load, but does not at idle - this seems to generally be electrical issue as there is enough spark at idle, but not with higher volumes of fuel.
1) How can I identify which cylinder is missing?
2) What would be the first thing to try? Injector? Plug? Wiring? Other?
The missing seems very consistant time wise, so I think it's a cylinder issue versus some other issue that just makes the engine run rough.
Thanks for the help -
