Hmm... so when u first switched back to stock coil and re gapped plugs it was ok ? Then it got worse ?

Have you tried disconnecting the battery and resetting the PCM ?

No what I meant was, when you first re gapped the plugs and switched the coil back, did it start missing again right away or was it gradual ?

I think on my Dakota to reset the PCM it has to be off for 8 to 10 minutes, but I cant remember.

IT could be so many things man...

I have left the cable for as long as a half hour. Some will say 5 - 10 - 15 minutes, decide for yourself. Or after you take it off, go have a beer and watch some TV

Maybe its a boost leak ? Or a bad injector ?
