Smile 97 Sunfire skipping need help


Hi All, I have a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire, last month I drove it about 58 miles put it in the garage and it was running fine, two weeks later I started it up to move it and it was skipping and the check engine light was on. I installed new spark plugs to no avail, so I took it to Advance Auto Parts and they put it on a scanner and it shows the following; Vehicle scanned Global OBDII vechicle, DTC (Codes), P0200 Injecter Circut Open,, P0302 Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected, any ideas where to start on this problem?? I appreciate any help on this, thanks, Jerry.

Re: 97 Sunfire skipping need help

My car did the same exact thing twice. The first time I replaced the coils, that worked. It did it again and I had to replace the ignition coil cover. The coil covers go out quite frequently on my car. I was also told # 2 injector that wasnt it. We finally figured this out after lots of $ later
