and the engine light is blinking off and on the car has 199,000 miles on it what can be the problem
I am having the same problem, but only misfires when the defrost or the air conditioner is on. The compressor for the AC cycles when you use the defrost heat setting, it does run constantly, but without doubt sitting at a red light, I feel the misfiring, turn the heater OFF, and the missing goes away. I changed spark plugs and wires, it went away for a while just to return within 2,000 miles. My guess is that it is AC compressor, the spark plug wires, or the throttle position sensor out of range and not working. I will post what I find... If I ever figure it out.
