Default MY93 misfire on idle only.

Since I've owned my '93 wrx, it has always had a misfire on tick over. When driving it is unnoticeable, and drives well. But when I pop the bonnet, whilst the engine is idling, I can hear and see the misfire (the odd random miss type of shake).

Any ideas?

Rob.

Thumbs up

I had a similiar fault on my 94 STI and it was a coil pack. Only happened on tick-over but was running perfect on boost .

Renew the offending coil pack and see if that helps on your car!
