your engine misses when at the driving speed range where its supposed to be . like say if your driving normal your car would put,put,pow once in a while. your engine would lope or idle erratically. When your floor the car youll get a surge then youll lose power for a minute then it would kick in. The reaction time at full throttle would be slower than what its supposed to be.,
