I have a 1993 Ford Tempo 4cyl. 5 speed and it ran perfect friday when I parked it at home after work. It ran great saturday and wasnt driven sunday. I jumped in it to go to work today and it has this horrible miss. What can I check out before taking it to a repair shop?

did you just get the car? or has it ran bad before? look at coil wire ends for corrosion especially on coil end. any weather change on day of rest or next? distributor cap rotor and plugs/wires should be looked at also. egr valve could acting up.
