Lost Cylinder?

[starscream_r32]

Hey all,

I recently followed the AAC clean tutorial and Air Reg clean tutorial on here and now i've run into some problems!

After completing both and putting everything back in the car i had high idle/reving.

Car was also shaking alot and when i took the car for a drive i had no power and car wouldn't go.

The idle issue has been fixed now but i still have the problem where the car is shaking like a mofo and i suspect a lost cylinder or something along the line.

I only thing i took off and touched was the throttle body, AAC and Air Reg so i can't understand why i would have these issues.

Anyone able to give me some advice?

Thanks.

did you disconnect the plugs to the AFMs?

my afm is on the cold side intercooler pipe so yes i did take the afm out hence had to d/c the plug.

all plugs and wires are connected as should be.

hey guys,

after some investigating it seems engine/cylinder 6 is not running.

At first when i pulled out spark plug it was wet!

so i swapped over a new spark plug. It fixed it for like 30mins and then i had issues again.

this time i pulled out sparkie it was dry... i checked all other sparks and they are fine as well.

so i did the test where i pull the plug off each coil pack 1 by one and see if engine reacts.

all cylinders react except for #6!

i swapped the coil pack with #1 but its still the same.

so i can rule out spark plug and coil pack. i'm pretty sure i can rule out injector? as it made the spark plug wet the first time?

so what else could be the issue?

any advice on what else i can check would be great!

thanks.

If you have a multimeter, try probing a working cylinder to see what the normal output is to its coil plug, then try 6th coil plug and compare the 2, it might not be getting power/spark/whatever to it

How did you fix the initial high idle problem?

Did you actually solve the problem it or just compensate by screwing the IAC screw in or out more?
