My Protege has a bad miss, like it's running on 3 cylinders...a lot of shaking, sounds awful.
In reading up on the subject 2 things were suggested: change plug wires or replace a coil. Does this sound right? There are I believe 2 coils, would they be the same? I'm thinking of just buying one and trying to substitute it for the bad one if that's the problem. Any suggestions? I made the mistake of resetting the computer so I don't know what error message might show up. By the way, the check engine light flashes when started.
HELP, PLEASE. DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO BUY ANOTHER CAR. THANKS.
