Miss Fire on Cold Start Up???? Spark Plugs?? Distributor???
well before i was having this problem with my car, it wouldnt go past 6 grand, and would do this ignition type /cut out thing, popping and tatatata ****, lol so anyways, i did some searching and found that maybe it was the coil or ignitor going bad, so i bought a brand new coil and ignitor and put those in and the problem went away, but now it seems on cold start when i let it warm up and take it for a spin on the road, it does that same exact problem like i had before, but once its fully warmed up to normal temp, the problem is gone through out the whole day, and it will do it again until the next day when the car has been sitting all night, then once its fully warmed it goes away, the parts are only about 5 days old, but the spark plugs have been in there for a while, its a very weird problem and not really sure wat it is anymore. TIA

Re: (B18 CYA)
update - it did it again even though the car was fully warmed, I AM VERY SICK OF THIS PROBLEM NOW, tuned with hondata and plugs are gapped at .25 right now heat range 8, when i replaced the parts, it was fine, now its pulling the same bull **** again, im ready to sell everything and go K series, either that or just buy a OEM dizzy, i have a dizzy king dizzy right now with ebay aftermarket coil and ignitor.
can it be the plugs? there not all that new, it couldnt be the brand new parts right?

another idea came to mind, since i changed out those parts, should i have reset the ecu? could it be that the ecu has the memory of the old coil and ignitor and the problem that it gave? and by changing the new parts and not resetting the ecu could trigger the ecu to think that its still the old parts in there? i know it sounds dumb but i was just wondering that
