this is about the 4th coil pack that i've mysteriously fried. the car misses at passed 1/4 throttle and at idle but anywhere in between its fine. i'll backfire real bad out the intake if you floor it at a low rpm in gear. but everytime i replace the pack it'll be fine. it fries the pack whenever i go around beatin on the motor and steppin on the throttle but that shouldn't keep killin the coil packs. its really frustrating what could be the problem

 

How is the wiring to the coil pack?

 

i actually had to extend the wires to the coil pack for the motor swap so i just added like 10 inches to all 3 wires and taped them up real good. however one time the wires fell on my header and melted through so i repaired it with tape and re routed them but they should be fine

 

Did you solder the wires?

 

nope just twisted them and taped them individually. its actually seeming to be gettin better now after bein easy on it. i swapped on another used coil pack and it was doin the same thing so this time it might not be the coil pack. maybe a bad camshaft or crank position sensor or knock sensor idk. all i have a code for is egr flow but im usin the stock computer now.

 

my teacher also said to check my motor to body grounds. and now that i think about it all i have is two motor to body grounds one on the back of the head and one at the bottom motor mount. is that enough?

 

im so thinking about buyin a brand new wiring harness and all new sensors. where can i get a brand new harness not used? and can i buy all the sensors in some sort of package deal somewhere? cuz im tired of tryin to diagnoss the prob.

 

A brand new harness will be real expensive from the dealer.

 

Agreed ,and redo your wiring correctly before your filling an insurance claim.

 

an insureance claim? for what??
