Clean the plug on the AFM! Will cause massive problems when dirty!

If its the v6 car change the dizzi cap, that was 99% of the problems we had with them.

The airbox.

:doubt: OR it could be the mechanism which senses the air flow FROM the airbox. It's the black box bolted to the air box which comes before the pipe. there's a plug on it :)

If he's asking what the AFM is, I'm just stating it to make it easy for him to locate, and inspect the plugs (Plus first gens, the AFM is in the airbox. God help you if the plug falls out!)

Is also a real bugger when your plug lead falls out and ends up in your glove box too, this will usually cause a miss lol

Get your TPS checked

blocked injector but if that was the case it would miss all the time. check the plug on ur dizzy. How olds your coil?
It might pay to spent 10 bucks on a can of crc contact cleaner (from any auto store or dick smiths etc.) and clean all the connection in your engine bay.
