Hi there

I've got a 1992 Ford Aerostar van and it acts like it has a dead cylinder. It has a significant loss of power and rough idle and what feels like a constant miss. Help!

start with a compression test to verify the motor is ok.

otherwise, could be plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil or injector. start with the compression test
