I have a 97 Eclipse 2.0 Non-Turbo 5 speed.
I'm getting a P0302 (misfire Cylinder 2) CEL and a rough Idle. I swapped plugs, replaced wires, swapped wires, etc. to rule out the plugs and wires. The problem always stayed on cylinder 2. The head was reworked about 5k miles ago. I verified that compression is still good on all 4 holes.
It idles rough, but runs OK at anything above around 2K RPM's (approximately, it varies). This lead me to believe that it was the EGR valve stuck open. I verified that the EGR valve is working correctly. (Or at the very least, not stuck open.)
My next thoughts are bad injector or Idle Air Controller (IAC). (Oh, I also intend to borrow a friends Coil to be sure mine is OK.)
What do you guys think? Am I on the right track or should I be going elsewhere?
