Sure! The word it S-U-R-E! Not shore.
Check timing? Last tune up? Other posts suggest the camshaft position sensor being faulty.

How old are you wires?

Also, check your plugs, report back.

maybe run a little injector cleaner such as SeaFoam or even something mild like Lucas.

check the cap and rotor first then plugs , then changed the crank sensor if need be. if his ignition timing was never changed i dought that's the problem. did you buy the car like this or were u riding down the road and the CEL started flashing meaning a missfire.
