Just wondering if any of you have encountered a misfire with no check engine light? I'm smelling raw fuel and car seems to be down on power. I'm getting alittle bit of a rough idle and a backfire everynow and again. I'm going to check the coils and injectors tonight. I have a set of 60s for the car just haven't put them in yet.

Thanks

Have you swapped the plugs yet?
Good place to start.

Have you washed your engine lately?(water in plug holes)
If not, check your plugs for possible spark blowout or misfires.
Coil packs?

Very common in aftermarket tunes where the OBDII test switch is altered or the check engine light is forced off.
