What could possibly cause the battery light and coolant light to come on if alternator is good? Charges 13.5v at idle. I also just recently got a wierd misfire, was cruising just fine and all the sudden it starts to feel like i'm running on 3 cylinders. I had a spare coil and swapped it in had no luck. Very frustrated and really could use some help. Also I can rev the car and seems not to miss but the tach will fall off to 0 but the car is revving. Could a bad ecu possible cause this? I have a msd dis and i have wired so i can bypass the msd and when i do that the car won't even start.
 
The misfire issue sounds like it could be the computer. Had the same thing happen to mine and eventually it wouldnt event start.
 
Was going to upgrade to ecmlink v3, guess now i'll send them the entire ecu to see if they can find a problem with it.
