    Want to replace stock belts but what size?

    Ive done several searches and all the comes up is stuff about a/c deletion and udp's. I've gone to several parts stores in the area and none of them seem to have the right belt in their database. They all say i need a J6K1130. Nothing more frustrating than getting the old belt off then not being...

    Misfires?!~

    Yeah i wired them up all right, i would notice somthing as drastic as that, this misfire is just enough to annoy you. And occurs when you get on it from a stop or slow crawl, somthing else to note is that my exhaust has more holes than swiss cheese

    Misfires?!~

    Even after changeing my plugs and wires i still get a sharp loss and gain of power when the car is still cold, like a plug/wire issue it goes away after the engine has been spun up. Is it possible for a coil pack to grow weak being that its most likily original?
