Cutting out
Okay here is the scenario, my 93 is acting up lately. Wright at about 3k rpms it'll miss out sometimes. The distributer is a jegs unit replaced a last year, just put a new coil pack from streetfire on it. I'm guessing its the ignition control module. It only does it once in awhile, I'd just replace the module but hell they want 75 for it autozone an 100 at oriellys. Any input appreciated, i also can't seem to retrieve any codes on it except it has a bad egr valve

The coil is a brand new msd, the wires have been on it since i bought the car bought seem good there accel racing 8mm. Plugs have also been changed last summer, It only does it when you get on it a little bit, it will just completly cut out for a second then be fine. It hasn't died or anything an it starts an idles fine

Well i did the icm cooling mod an it ran fine for about a week, now it does it worse. Yesterday i picked my gf up an was taking her hom the car completly died, luckily i just put it into 2nd let out of the clutch an she started back up. Everything on the car is brand new except the icm an the wires from the manifold passenger side down to the opti spark. Could either one of those be it. Cause I'm about to just go buy a new icm

you said it ran fine after doing the cooling mod, go back and see if you have any bad wires that go to the coil or the ground wires. i was putting in a new coil last week and noticed i had some wires exposed on the plugs and the ground wires
