I got the silver spirit running to day and i have around 17-19 pounds of vac idols at 900.When i first start the car it runs rough then it start to run alot better i checked the codes and it saying one of coil drives are bad.Can that be the reason my car is not wanting to take boost.Other then that happening the car runs great any ideals?

Change out the coil, you got a spare? Also, check the wires/plugs. How long was it sitting?

Did you have the code BEFORE you changed the coil? If so, you got another computer to try?

If one of your coil drivers is bad, the engine will run terrible. It will have a very pronounced misfire which will cause poor performance and low boost. Normally the computer is the last to suspect for issues, but if you have changed out the coil pack with a known good unit and still have problems, that may be your problem. Check your coil circuit wiring COMPLETELY with a multimeter. Check for resistance and voltage. Check all of your connections too.

If you don't have a bad misfire, I don't know what to tell you.

Okay i was messing with the spirit today and the car runs good after the coil fixes itself and i give it gas and it hesitates and struggles to go over 3k rpm but if you tap the gas over and over again the rpm will go higher but as soon as you put it to the floor it will start to break up and wont go any higher in rpm could it be tps? still no codes

Ok tried 4 wire o2 no change. I grabed the tps and the idel changed so I think I need to tighten it up.Is the a proper way to put the tps on?. Are all the tps the same for our cars.Another thing is that while I was checking the tps the coil shocked the snit out of me.Any reason it shocked me without me messing with it just laid my arm up against it.Really need some advice on how to get the car running alot better so I can drive this car

sounds to me like the coil is cracked or one of the boots on the plug wires is cracked...
