Unhappy ka24de problems still

Alright. I've got a 93 KA24de in my 510 and I've been having some problems. I already posted about this but I've done some maintanence and its still there. My #1 cylinder doesn't fire at idle and doesn't kick in until later until later in the rpms, sometimes not at all. I recently changed the plugs, plug wires, coil, dist. cap, dist. rotor. I'm running out of ideas and patience, any ideas would be a great help. Also, I had the compression checked a few months ago and was fine. Thanks a lot.

man you've got a serious problem.

if i were you i'd think about getting another KA and paying to have the new parts swapped over. your problem sounds very expensive at 75-100 bucks an hour to completely tear down the engine.

ask a master mechanic what he thinks initialy and how much what he says might be to fix it.

Good news! I had a friend of mine who is a mechanic and built the car take a look and it was just the injector. Thank god. I was getting scared I might have a new swap project on the horizon. Thanks for the advice.
