you can do this test for the opti

but i think its a little early for that test, seeing as how your car still runs. if your plugs and wires really check out, i would test the icm next.

really it could be anything in the ignition system. i had the same problem earlier this year. my plugs gapped out at .07x, and my plugs wires were arcing so bad that i couldnt even start the car in the rain. what did your plugs gap out to exactly? and even if you could scan your car, i doubt it would really tell you anything other than that you have a miss. if it is your opti thats going out, its unlikely that it will trigger a high or low res code.
i have no idea i just got the car so i mean i have not the clue.....but i switched my plugs on my optispark i got those in order so it really doesnt backfire anymore abut its still boggs down and stuf it has a big hesitation problem ....but other than that i really dont know
on obd1 i though all you have to do is ground the a and b terminal on the diagnostic port under the dash to retrieve codes? the ses light on the dash will blink numerous times depending on the code number. My 92 gmc truck is that way, local parts store should have a little two prong tool you stick in the diagnostic port, then turn the key on but don't start it.
