car misses sometimes but goes away....?
recently my cars been acting weird.... long time ago when i did my headers my buddy ripped one of my plug wires.... he put it back together and we went on with the install.... the car was fine.... just recently the car started to miss really badly.....but than it goes away when i rev it up or just stop for a lil bit.... i thought maybe it was that plug wire having a loose connection... i bought new wires.... taylor thundervolts... the car still has the same problem but it doesnt do it for as long of a period of time as it use too.... you guys think its a coil? or maybe the plugs going bad? the plugs are decently new probably have around 8k miles on them...

It could even be your fuel filter if you have not changes it recently. It could be a lot of things. That's why I maintain the heck out of my cars. When I have weird problems, a lot of the easy stuff has already been done as routine maintenance.
