I have a 1999 park avenue base - it intermittently misses and stalls when hot. I have replaced the fuel filter, changed the wires and plugs, cleaned the mass air flow sensor, changed the fuel pump, and Ohm'ed out the fuel injectors all were @ 13 ohms. It still runs poorly no impact on the issue? What else could it be? It runs good cold but after 5 miles the issue comes on.
