My Service Engine Soon light in my 1996 Grand Caravan is blinking, and the car is running really rough. It doesn't accelerate very well, and shakes rather violently when it does. It also shakes when idling.
I took to to a local auto parts store and they hooked up a meter thing that first told me I was getting a random misfire, then it said spark plug 4 was misfiring. My husband replaced all the spark plugs and wires except for one that he can't figure out how to get to.
Still running rough, engine light still on. I took it back to the auto parts store and they hooked the meter up again and it said random misfire again without specifically naming a plug, and also said we needed to replace the Output Speed Sensor, so we did that.
Car is still running rough, so I took it back today and I'm still getting the random misfire code. Is it likely that it's that last plug and my husband just needs to figure out how to get to it? Or is there something else we should be looking at too?
Thanks!
