Very weird stalling/misfire/no gas ,sounding problem ! help?

alright,
If you are still having problems:
1. Check every electrical connector on your fuel injectors. If they do not have the little metal clips, that injector will miss-fire. When my injector connectors were loose, i would notice that it sputtered and almost stalled. Then it wou,ld drive well for days (like you said) then it would sputter again.
I did the whole pressure test, then changed every sensor on my TB, then seafoamed it, then got a new coil. It ended up being the fuel injector connectors.
I posted a thread about it in 2008. And I stated what it ended up being. If you do not have tiny the metal clips on the injector connectors...you will drive like crap (like a dead cylinder).
If the connections are tight, then it might be the camshaft position sensor (disc under the distributor cap. you can take it off when you take off the rotor).

Didn't want to start a new thread so I'll just jump in here. At idle I seem to have an intermittent miss. It has no consistency, just every 2-10 sec it will "pop" Changed the plugs, wires, cap/rotor, and had the coil checked. It seems like it has a mind of it's own, runs fine under load but as soon as it gets down to idle, at a light or in park, it misses. Almost sounds like a hammer dropping under the hood. Compression test showed 120 across all cylinders. Any ideas?

Sounds like possibly some contaminated fuel/clogged injectors.
Don't have anyone mad at you by chance, who would do something dirty like dropping a cigar in your tank, do ya ?
Someone did that to me once, talk about the gift that keeps on giving. It'll just keep clogging up, and eventually you'll have to drop the tank and change the fuel lines.
Probably nothing that drastic, could be a garden variety clog, start out with some quality fuel injector cleaner.

Well it happened again , but this time I got a CEL code 43 so checked the wires and just decided to replace the coil ,we will see if this helps ,fingers crossed ...........
