I don't drive the wagon much as I have a company car. Anyway, for the past few months there is an ignition miss that comes and goes.
Sometimes the Check Engine light comes on, sometimes not. Two days ago, I drove it up north to try and see the rocket launch that was delayed.
It ran fine the 130ish miles up the interstate (or seemed to), but after getting off the highway I noticed the miss at idle right away. No light and very rough and stumbly off the line. A solid miss. Nursed it down the road and stopped at a grocery store. 10 min later hopped in and it was still missing but not as bad. Drove half a mile to my sister's.
Got in the next day and it was fine when cold, but as I got near the interstate it stumbled a bit, but then under highway speed, no noticeable miss.
130 miles later got off the highway and it was fine.
Also, when in OD and press on the gas (not too hard) it bucks in that 65 mph range. Like cruising along and need to press the gas a little and it bucks a bit and doesn't want to speed up, but if I press firmly it will shift back to D and accelerate.......
Drove it twice yesterday about 10 miles each and it was fine. Coil and ICM were replaced about 10K ago.
Any suggestions? Haven't pulled the plugs yet, maybe thinking it could be the wires. Car has 82K.
