Idle ok,slow acceleration fine,cruises ok,when accerating quickly it misses and back fires,the alternator had to be replaced earlier,when going to auto-eleatricians car was smoking badly and started to miss eventually had no acceleration at all and had to tow it,alternator replaced,since then have replaced spark plugs and ht leads,it is as if the timing is complelely out but it is an electronic ignition so i'm stumped
SOURCE: engine misses when accelerating
Have the same problem with a 2.3, mechanic told me the cat converters were not allowing enough flow causing the problem. Transmission then went out and I wasn't able to confirm.
SOURCE: 302w runs at idle but under acceleration starts to miss
need to check fuel pressure and what output the coil has. This is measured in KV's,

what engine do you have the 1.8spi liter or 1.9spi liter 2.0 spi?
Is there a high pitch whistling coming from the motor?
