    Sounds like you eliminated fuel and spark. How about vacuum leaks? They don't have to be big to effect idle.

    What kind of car?
    How many Miles?
    What year?
    supercharged or NA?
    Has the lower intake gasket been changed?
    if NA, has the upper composite intake been changed yet?

    Ok, sorry about not giving all the details. Car is a 1998 pontiac grand prix GTP with the L67 we have checked all the vaccume lines and there are no leaks found one a while back but fixed it for sure. The car has just under 147k miles on it. From what it looks like the previous owner put no LIM gaskets on so those should be ok. I may try and get a set of wires soon to see if it helps just trying to get a general view on what could be causing the misfire only at idle...

    Stock LIM gaskets are a none failure point with that many miles. As I understand it is normally a coolant leak but still something to check

    If you try everything and that doesn't solve it.. swap the ICM. I know..it fires both towers etc etc. I've seen two cases where the icm didn't fire on one of the two cylinders. Odd eh?
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
