This Video explains how to Diagnose a Cylinder Misfire on an LT1 Engine, found in Firebirds, Firebird Trans Am, Chevrolet Camaros and Corvettes.
The Diagnosis process is very simple and it can be done with simple tools like: Noid Light, Spark tester, Sthetoscope and Compression Tester.
Even though these steps apply to LT1 Engines, the Video can be used as a general guide when troubleshooting a Misfire on other Makes and Models.

    You can also use a temp gun and check the temps on the exhaust runners. Cooler temp one is a potential miss fire.

    HSIMCW, thanks for the great videos. This has been one of the most informative videos on LT1 misfire trouble shooting I have come across. You even bring up the dreaded OptiSpark. Keep up the good work.

    Great video, i learned a lot. Think about buying a clip on microphone or Bluetooth or something so it's easier for us to hear what you're explaining. Thanks

    What if my injector does receive signal, injector does fumction but spark plug gets intermediate spark? Spark plug cable is good, and optispark has been switched twice and still same result. Misfire is still there. Bad harness?

    What opti did you go with? Unfortunately pretty much all aftermarket opti's are junk. May be possible yours was doa.

    I've heard that most batch fire LT1s have a pop at warm idle.
