I have a a b16 in a eg coupe. Its been running fine, and all of a sudden an engine miss popped up, and lost about 35% power. I need some help please.It sounds just like a wrx imprezza or vw. when I pull plug wires when its running,it acts the same on every cyl, and same /w the injectors .Ive changed dizzy, ecu, Tb /w sensors, and done compression test.... good. I dont know what to do...

X2. i would try plugs, wires, cap and rotor first. also check all your engine grounds and the ground that hooks to the T-stat housing. if all that checks out check your cam timing. maybe it jumped.

yah bro its sounds like timing if its not plugs or wires you know how to check right it takes two seconds pull off the valve cover and make sure everything is lined up (cams have one arrow pointing up and one pointing at each other and there should be a line on the plastic that lines up with the single dash on the pulley) if u need still need help pm me

I say timing as an educated guess judging by your deductions already.
