dead cylinder?

[joeyd23]

i left school went to my budyys for about an hour an when i started my car up to leave the idle sounded funny so i gave it throtle and it sounded like a dead cylinder, i had heastiations taking off and leaveing first gear and other usual symtoms. no knocking pinging or rattling. im waiting on it too cool down before i mess with it so if anybody know frequnt problem areas or similar problems theve had that would help alot, thanks

probably a dead cylinder from not having spark. :biglaugh:

happened on mine a couple of times when I washed my engine and water was in the spark plug valley.

Yeah, have you washed your motor recently? Replaced the wires? Plugs? Mods that may cause this?

Mine sounds rough like a dead cylinder, but I got my timing retarded like hell to keep me outta the throttle until a new knock sensor comes in.
