1993 corsica 2.2l 4cyl 130000 Took a small trip and the engine started to miss really bad. Took forever to accellerate but once you got to speed was smooth as silk. Would almost die when coming to a stop. Replaced coils, wires, plugs. Car accellerates better but is still missing badly. Any help would bea appreciated.

well , first you need to isolate what cylinder the miss is from , you can do this by using insulated pliers and run the car and pull one plug wire at a time until you find the right one , then check compression and leakdown
