I replaced plugs,wires,rotor and cap but still has a miss on the lowe end of rpm's. When you give thte car plenty of gas as in a passing situation, when the revs come up you can hear and feel the missing cylinder join in and run like a top. And sometimes it runs with no miss from the time you start it but aftera bit will miss again.

just went thru this on my 93. Most likely you have a fuel injector going bad. It may work on and off for a while but it is going bad. the mechanics had to use a stethascope to find out which one. They can isola te it by the clicking noise of it either opening or closing or not. mark.
