hmmmm.. Ok, every since I've had my OBD-2 software (about a year now), it's
always pulled a code for saying Primary Ignition Coil Misfire.. This is
using the OBD-2 software for PC's (www.obd-2.com). Now, since then, I've
replaced all of my sparkplug and coil wires with JBA's, and put in an Accel
ignition system and coil..... still getting the code.. dunno why....
weird! Also, I have never been able to get readings from my O2 sensors
to see if I'm running Rich or Lean through the OBD-2 software (also note, I
get another warning code that the Oxygen sensor, I think in bank 2, is
returning high voltage).. neither code trips my Check Engine light
though.. not neccessarily noticing any problems or lack of performance,
but then again, it's been this way for awhile, maybe I don't know what I'm
missing??? hopefully??? :-) Oh, and if I clear the codes, the Ignition
coil misfire comes back on almost immediatly, haven't checked with the O2
sensor yet..........
Also, with the Ignition coil misfire, the only mods at the time I first got
it were Quick-D intake, exhaust, and cat.
