OK guys here it goes
04, MT with 50k and change on it
bought it used
mods it had that i know of, boral cat back
i have done,
AEM CAI, super cat high flow cat, UR UDP, BHR coils and wires
I drive it a lil hard and race from time to time. only drive it in the late spring to early fall. this is the issue, Missfiring, will not go above 7k with out missfiring so bad that smoke is poring out to the point it will stop traffic behind me. will not start when it gets hot UNLESS i pump the brakes to reset the E Shaft sensor (most of the time. few times didnt work). I am a mechanic and have had a few other mechanics that i know look at it and this is what we have fig out
The coils wires and plugs are all working like they need to be, putting out the right spark. No engine codes what so ever show up durring idle or driving. Something that came to mind is is the E shaft Sensor going? But i couldnt test the compression on the motor b/c i dont have one for the car. It seems like there isnt enough compression to start it. So beside the leak test or compression test how do i know if i have a bad apex seal? I personally only have a few days to work on my car b/c i return to afganistan. so any help would be great, or has anybody even heard of a issue like this.
Thanks for the helps guys
