Be careful identifying the pins. There's a couple pins on that connector that can cause an un-fused short circuit & maybe fry the ECU. I thought I've seen a drawing of that connector showing which pins you want; I'll see if I can find it.

ok i was wrong i am sorry. i guess its a code 74??? it gave me 7 long blinks and 4 short ones... but random misfire doesnt make any sense......i mean i guess it does.....but its had that code for a lnng time. and then just recently i started it up and it was doing thi crap. i dnt know what to do. i really hope its not bad injectors. maybe one bad injector would be ok, for that 4th cylinder i guess....but theres a stripped bolt on my fuel rail.

If you pull off the spark plug wires, are there any tubes filled or overflowing with oil.

If you remove the distributor cap, is there oil or a lot of red dust inside of the distributor?
