Where's the thread? A link please...
I know that this is pretty basic stuff but maybe this will help Pat out;
BECAUSE of the inherent difficulty of the 164 design lay-out (versus that of say the conventionally-positioned Milano/GTV6 longitudinal lay-out), you have to kind-o follow a particular path when trying to trouble-shoot one of these cars! You can't simply pull a plug-wire and it is time-consuming to swap plugs!
You could just start replacing things, but that is not smart and costs MUCHO $$$ too.
Injectors towards the rear of the motor (3-6) and maybe 1 and 4 can be swapped between banks (without removing the intake setup)
Swapping the ignition-module leads is pretty simple too (hard to reach with big hands and arms though!)
Swapping coil-packs and/or plugs on the front bank (4-5-6) is a breeze!
Swapping ECU is also time-consuming and not likely the issue if the rest of the cylinders are firing! (I am still suspect of the ignition-modules)
Once you have done the plugs, the coil-packs the harness, the injectors etc it could STILL be one of those two modules!
In a nut-shell; what is the deal with this car now and what has been tried?
