Ok, 1986 Turbo 4runner 50k on the motor and 5k on the turbo. When I start it in the morning, it will run great till it is warm. Then i get a miss every other couple of seconds. I have new ngk wires and plugs, new cap, rotor, and coil. Still doing it. I cannot jump my timing because it dies when I unplug my connector. SO i have it set for 10*(plan to change it to 16*)

There is no cat, and no check engine light. Can anyone assist?


Kthx

Compression? Is the idle speed correct?

if ya have a five speed, that is the cause. go ahead and take it out, and send it to me. i'll send ya my W56 and that will cure your problem. on the serious side, are ya losing coolant? have your ohm you temp. sensor?

It do have the 5spd But No, coolant loss. Its not a big deal I was just curious and would like for it to idle smoothly. I think i will be checking my wires and plugs tonight.....

Have you sprayed any carb cleaner around the intake gaskets and injector seals to rule out any leaks?

SEAIRESCUE

Valve adjustment or injector. Neither typically won't show up until the motor gets hot and leans out and parts expand.

Sonofmayhem

No, but tommorrow I will be replacing the intake manifold gaskets, I was going to check the fuel injectors.

do a compression check.... Mine was doing the same thing..#4 was toasted down to 40 pounds... still running okay tho', rebuilding another motor as we speak...

I turned up the idle, replaced a few gaskets, still have it. I am thinking its the motor. Good thing taxes are coming back so I can get a new one.
