I pushed down the accelerator, and normally I try not to go past 3k rpm, but I put more foot into it, enough that I thought I'd hit ~4k, but I was hovering just below 3k.
No big deal, until the hated "Check Engine Light" came on, blinked, and then went away.
Oh, and the acceleration was not what the Trac normally delivers.
Though I didn't feel any, the blinking CEL and the 3k rpm cap under hard acceleration are, as I all too well know, the signs of misfiring.
Is this misfiring? Is there any way to check besides looking at each and every wire boot and plug?
Was someone praying to the toyota gods for misfortune to find my ford or something?
