Greetings all! Customer complaint is no power or acceleration randomly. It will idle, but
won't get out of its own way. The little wrench light is on and there are 2 DTC's - P2107
and P2110 - both Throttle Assembly codes. The car is misfiring during each episode, but
there are NO MISFIRE CODES. A check of Mode $06 data with Snap-On red brick and Auto
Enginuity software on a laptop shows absolutely no problems. Identifix lists a dozen or more
same symptoms that had bad coils. Tried identifying which cylinder by pulling injector
connectors, however that got a weird response - most cylinders did not show any response
when disconnected. Anyone run across this before or have a suggestion or two?

Frank,
I would concentrate on those TB codes first. Errors in thottle control can and will cause misfires. I have the steps here and can fax if you'd like.

Yup. The P2110 may lead to that.
