btracing Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 I did change the plugs.not sure which cylinder it is as there is no cel or fault codes and it only does it between those rpm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smooth1 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Are you running stock? or do you have any mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btracing Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 its all stock... i really don't think it could be a cylinder problem. if it was that i would think it would do it all the time?? i'm thinking its gotta be sensor of some kind but i don't have a cel on. so i really don't know??

smooth1 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I wasn't thinking cylinder, I was thinking maybe fuel injector, maybe gap to large to small on one of the plugs???? Maybe one of the coil wires are bad??? Maybe dirty 02 sensors and IAT/MAF ??? (Not really sure this would be the case, but you may have a combination of any of these, which could be the causes.) Do you have an ODB II scanner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember right, those usually lead to the gas cap, or ventalation canister for the fuel tank. Try removong your gas cap, then put your cap on the opening, trun it counter clockwise until you feel the lowest point, then turn it clock wise until it clicks 3 or 4 times. See if that takes care of the cel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U235a4 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I have the same problem with my 01 is300 it started around 35-45k miles but I now have 70k. my miss hits around 4000 till about 5000 and it's like a wall aka rev limiter and once its past this point it good. no mil light, good milage, shifts good I'm thinking wires or coils but it could be something else I just hate to take this to a garage and get screwed when it's something I could fix if I knew what it was. Also I want to add I notice it misses worse on dry days aka like static discharge and seems better on humid days altho still misses. I thought fuel also but since it seems to pull good from 5k to 6k I can't seem to think it would be a fuel issue aka injectors or pressure.
