i changed the optispark yesterday cranked it up and drove the car about 5 miles it was running pretty good before the check engine light came on and the car started misfiring i went to the zone to get the codes checked and they said multiple cylinder misfire. does anyone know what the problem might be.i only changed the cap and rotor so im pretty sure i will have to pull it all off again and change the whole thing

Check all the wires first. I had one pop off once.

the cap and rotor wont do anything if the opti is bad. check the wires for corrosion, as well.

i changed all wires and plugs and im sure i put them in the right place but i will double check i think im gonna change the whole thing anyways.

When my car was misfiringi filled up on gas and i just put some stuff from the gas station that cleans up the engine i forgot which bottel but it did the trick halfway through the tank

If you had 2 wires in the wrong spot, it would run like **** from startup. Check all the connections, even where the coil connects to it.

i found a wire got riped off the plug and optispark by the steering shaft.i thought i fixed the problem and it was still missing

All the wires should run along side of the block, unless you did something different. That is where I have mine. It might take a little longer to run them in there, but they stay tucked in.
