I would start by checking the wiring going to the injectors and the coil pack. Especially around the EGR tube on the right side of the head. Does the car miss at idle or only under certain load conditions?

I was actually going to see about the coil pack tomorrow. As for car missing, it misses when accelerating. And it doesnt catch speed at all well. I also think it has something to do with the horrible cold weather. Heh. We'll see tomorrow
