20XE engine.

Noticed this morning once my car got warm if I was to floor it there would be a misfire.

It seemed at times I could rev it slowly to 4 k without an issue, but put more pressure on the pedel and it would hesitiate abit and making a funny noise. I'm assuming its a misfire because I've never heard one misfire before.

Would a weak connector on one of my spark plug leads cause this? I'm asking because i took one of my leads off (coil end) and it came off with the connector missing (was stuck in the coil still). I'm asumming it was slightly broken but working before and me removing it has made it finally snap.

Just waiting for a lift now to get a new set of leads :lol:
