    Cylinder Contribution Problems That Change After Reset

    Flashing CEL and Misfires

    So in the last 2 weeks, I've now had a flashing CEL twice. I do not have a log as I wasn't racing or doing anything out of the ordinary. Both times the flashing CEL has occurred right after start up and acceleration. Wasn't going fast, both times under 40mph. Spirited acceleration though (3800...

    Troubleshooting bank 2 misfires on all cylinders

    5.0 R-Spec Misfire or Something Else

    So my R-spec has been doing something strange. In gears 3, 4, and sometimes 6, when I get on it, I get a random "stumble" and "shudder" feeling reminiscent of what my Firebird would do when the ignition wires were arcing against the exhaust manifolds. Does anybody else have this problem? Is it...
