Car has a intermittant miss, I replaced the spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor, thought I had it fixed but it has done it twice since, once at a stop light and once while driving. I did install a remote starter a month ago but the problen only started yesterday 02/13/10 I don't no if this could be relavent but I thought I would mention it. Can you help?

What is it doing now-is it cranking over and will not start or just won't crank at all/nothing?

The car runs just fine, every so often it will start missing then it will run fine again

Do you have a Check engine light on?
When was your last tune-up?
Bare in mind, this is hard to determine, unless it's happening or have it scope out.
