Time for a compression test. Mark the spark plug wires so that you'll know where to put them back. Pull all plugs, screw in a compression gauge and have an assistant crank the engine with the accellerator full open. Let the engine crank until you hear the compression hit the gauge at least 3 times, then stop and look at the pressure reading on the gauge. Record the reading for each gauge. If one or more gauge is significantly below the others, you probably have a burned exhaust valve, the most common cause of low compression in one cylinder.
Check and clean spark plugs distributer and rotor change air fillter and oil change wont hert
Were are the freeze plugs
check your egr that is not plugged also do you have any engine codes?
If your Chevy 350 marine engine misses at high speed, you might have an issue with the timing. This can be adjusted. You also may have an issue with the fuel filter or injectors. Spark plugs can do that also.
Assuming the plugs and wires have already been replaced you may have a bad fuel injector.
the problem will be one or more coils and plugs needs replacing
check that your sparkplugs are not cracked and that your wires are fully on your plugs
A 2000 Silverado 5.3 Vortec that is hard to start and misses on one side of the engine might have a problem with the coil pack or the spark plugs. It could also mean that the block is cracked if the engine is prone to overheating.
Generally speaking, when an engine "misses" (fails to fire on all cylinders,) there is a failure in the ignition system. Since most factory ignition systems lose power at higher RPMs, flaws in the wiring or spark plugs will become aparent. Given the age of your car, replcement of the plugs and wires will probably solve the problem. Note: If you note excessive dirt or grease on the spark plugs when you remove them, the problem may be minor oil leak in the engine. If these are not fixed, the problem will return when the new plugs foul up.
Never put Bosch spark plugs into a US engine. Normally they fail. Use Motorcraft--good experience speaking!
depends on age. Its pre 97 change the plugs for the bosch type 3 prong. And add some engine additive.
There are seals under the valve cover that need replaced to repair oil on the spark plugs.
