Engine Performance problem
1997 Holden Commodore 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 200.00 miles

hey I have just recently serviced my commodore and put injecter flush in tank . After washing the engine down I noticed on the test drive it was misffiring and backfiring mainly underload. I replaced the spark plugs and leads checked fuel injectors ok. Ckecked blocked catalyc converter ok, found runing pretty much th same wen disconected the no and no sparkplug leads im thinking it may be crank angle scencor or coils wat do u think and how would I go about confirming problem with coil
cheers

Crom93,
mine is doing the same thing bud, and I have done the exact things you have done. I have asked around and nobody can seem to give me answer. I'm maybe thinking something internal. I will let you know if I get an answer. I have posted questions on just commodores so hopefully I will get an answer soon.
Talk laterr

Well I had an identical problem in my VR Calais under load it would miss badly and got to the extent where I couldn't drive it. The problem was the check valve in the fuel pump not allowing the fuel pressure underload. I suggest not getting a "fuelmiser" brand pump from autopro you are better off to get a bosch or get a genuine pump from holden.
