missfiring when not under boost...

[Frankyy]

Heres my question:

when not under boost I have a missfire and gotta keep my foot on the pedal or else it will idle from 100-600. when I hit boost I have full power.

Things I have done so far:
change sparkplugs
tried good coils
n nothing,

Before that I degreased my engine bay I covered
intake and alternator, I was having little backfires, but now it's alot worst... my cap rotor thing looks good I had a drip of oil on the inside from my previous oil leak from the dipstick

Have you checked for boost/vacuum leaks?

[Frankyy]

Ya everything is holding on everything is sealed... No leaks..

is it an s13?
then check the wire for the iacv...if it gets wet or crappy voltage u get crappy idle
that of course after u r sure everything is else is good...
my car was down a week cause this wire craped out on me

yes it's an s13 so this might be it, the wire coulda got wet for sure, althought I know my car and engine pretty well I am not too sure where the IACV wire is located,

If I could locate it I could find out exactly if the wire is crappy.

does the faulty IACV wire cause missfire at like 2000-3500 RPM as well?

its in the f9 and f10 connectors (two plugs by the battery tray)....
its blk/yellow stripe...
if ur car dont idle it may have no power at all...my sr didnt idle at all till i track this down..
and u can cross this with frsport.com swap info
as far as misfire i dunno..that sounds like a pinhole boost leak or maybe a coilpak is slightly off from resistance...

Thanks I'll check that out right away

Sounds like you're too lean.

Probably vacuum leak or crappy tune

Problem fixed, that clip was loose when I did
a wire tuck 2 weeks ago. And I had a cracked vacuum line, replaced all the lines and it fixed the problem

thanks alot everybody for your help really really appreciate it!!
