I am having 6 & 8 mixtures.
Magnacor wires about 3 years old and new plugs.
No coolant loss, I only get the code on cold mornings low 30's?
I see in the Rave the wires come off different coils.
I thinking of trying a new set of wires first?
It seems to be running fine?
Any over ideas?

Sprayed the wires with WD-40 last night and even though it was 35 degrees this morning I had no misfires. Ordered a set of 8mm Kingsbornes last night.
Wish me luck.

cept for the last time I got a misfire code (the coil packs were toast), I pour a bottle of techron fuel system cleaner into the tank. it always cleared the codes.

if it is plug/wire related..it probably won't clear the code.

Do a compression check first. It's cheap and easy and will eliminate the mechanical side of the equation.
