95 Buick Regal misfiring
My Dad's 95 Regal has a problem. It idles great, but when the tranny is moved to D or R, it starts misfiring bad, the car jerks and shakes. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for your time.

Re: 95 Buick Regal misfiring
Pretty general description, any check engine lite? Good wires and plugs?

Re: 95 Buick Regal misfiring
Could be something is grounding out with a wire or sensor connector, recheck the plug wires for proper routing and connections.

Re: 95 Buick Regal misfiring
I'd be suspicious of the coil packs too. Get those checked. If they're bad that might be the answer to your problem. If you get the coil packs checked and they're ok, it would be time to check your fuel system. Is the fuel pump working Right? Are the fuel lines ok? When was the last time the fuel filter(s) was checked and/or replaced? Are the fuel injectors clogged? These are all questions you'll have to find the answer to if the coil packs aren't the problem. Keep posting, let us know how it goes, and good luck.
