Question 95 d16z6 really bad miss

i have a 95 civic coupe..d16z6 (1.6 vtec) it has developed a REALLY BAD miss..
i have changed plugs, wires, cap and button....checked fuel filter and pump and even checked to see if cat was plugged...nothing seems to help... it doesnt seem to miss at an idle but anything above 2000 rpm is horrible....any ideas...ill try anything!!

Re: 95 d16z6 really bad miss

what brand parts are you using? alot of times the cheapo parts do not work well, and certain brands of spark plug do not work at all. you should at the least have ngk/denso plugs and ngk wires. check the cylinder compressions too. and check the fuel pressure. your injectors may also be clogged and not spraying fuel properly.
