Right. It should at least provide spark to all 6 cylinders even if the fueling and MAF settings might be out of whack.

Are there different ecu for s1 and s2 power fc?
Should still start, but run SUPER rich.

The ecu is the same for S1/S2

Cliffsnotes; You aren't getting spark on cyl 3 right?

Runs with the same misfire on the stock ecu. I'm going to double check spark to all cylinders and try my spare CAS sometime in the next few days.

Ground wire is good.

I'm kinda sceptical because cyl compresion is about 155ish but a friend of mine really thinks i have a bent valve in cyl 6... ? What do u guys think?

everyone give up on trying help me figure this thing out?

say I DO have a bent valve in cyl 6, and it doesnt fire, but there is compressions, spark and fuel.... would it make sense that when i unplug coil for #1 cyl that the motor runs smoother?
