Detecting Misfire
Hey,
I've got a question. How do you detect a misfire? Is it audible or does the car run different? I ask because lately I've been getting a check engine light every 700-1000 miles and I'm not sure why. I just reset it by disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it but before the light and during the light being on the car runs fine. I took it to the dealership to have them run a check on it and they find nothing, do you guys have any suggestions?
Mods:
Walbro pump
B&B Turbo Back
RMR filter
Cusco induction pipe
UR high flow cat
Forge DV
Linage Grounding kit
AFC (set on 0)
HKS TT
Greddy profec spec b-II
Dynoflash
thanks for your help in advance

From what I heard, a misfire is generated if the engine does not make a cetian amount of turns (crank) at a certain amount of time.
With your mods, you should not be getting a CEL. I have a CEL from 272s, I just cleard it right now. Ill see if it comes on again.
