Yeah,. nah, you've got the wrong wiper blades.
gadgit3, Jul 8, 11:19am
1991 Gen 1 engine then, ECU should be good to go for manual trans. (you have issues with gen2 and 3 ECU and manuals)
Trac control might be your issue you need to remove/unplug the TPS on the rear side of the throttle body and the throttle motor (if it has one depending on it's app)

I have the same setup in my suzuki. if it drops back to 4 cylinders under load it could be a stuffed coil. I had the same thing happen to me and it turned out to be the top coil. They are cheap enough brand new from repco
tonym8, Jul 9, 11:06am
Thanks Guys I'll try both tomorrow
tonym8, Jul 10, 3:43am
have tried these and the engine is still laking power an dropping cylinders under load until it gets up in the revs then it seems to be ok.
tonym8, Jul 14, 12:06am
is there any more ideas
antwerp87, Jul 14, 12:51am
Either that or the interior light is blown. Its the only 2 options left. Other than the Right Rear tyre pressure is 2psi too low

if its dropping cylinders under load it had to be ignition breaking down which means coil, leads, plugs or dizzy cap and rotors. coils and dizzy cap/rotors are quiet common on 1uz's
