Trying to figure out why the engine is skipping a beat. Does it just need a tune-up, an oil change, or something else? It doesn’t matter if I’m accelerating or not. The battery cable was loose earlier today. Maybe that was it.
It sounds like you’re saying the engine is missing. Has the check engine light come on? It could be caused by a bad coil. It could also be a timing problem. When was the timing belt last changed?
