Fuel injectors!!!! Same problem with mine. 2002 Grand Prix GTP! After replacing coils and mod.. my miss fire was my injectors not getting fuel. Was getting a little gas but not what it was needing! Hope this help bro! Love my GTP!

I installed a remanufactured engine, so it only has about 8 thousand miles on it, and runs very smooth, except I started having issues with it starting intermittently. I narrowed that down to the crankshaft position sensor, replaced it and it's been starting consistently ever since. I've also replaced sensors, cleaned out the throttle body, and that has helped, but it still idles a bit rough, and the scanner shows an aggressive misfire issue. It counts up quickly. Initially, there were no indications of misfiring on any of the cylinders, and no DTC relating to the misfire issue, but today I checked it again, and no DTC, buy it's now showing misfires on nearly all of the cylinders. What I believe might be the problem is that it needs a CASE relearn, which I can only get from the dealer. Scheduling at a dealership is like a 2 week wait time. I don't believe the ECM knows exactly where the crankshaft angle is, so it's out of synchronization. I'm hoping anyway. If that doesn't fix it, then I'll look into the ignition control module next. I don't want to let this go too long as it can have a detrimental effect on my engine.

To test the coils on these. The best way is to pop off the wires from the coil. Have a buddy crank the engine while you have your fingers between the posts 😮. If it hurts a lot, you've got a good strong coil...

I had put gas in my 2006 grand prix that had diesel mixed with it. For obvious reasons my injectors got gunked up leading to the same trouble your having. The next couple tanks I used premium and octane booster and it eventually cleared up. Around the same time I had a bad secondary air pump check valve and upper cooling system elbow leaking. All replaced and no more code

Could be infector but also ive seen valve springs go bad at that mileage. Weak spring cant snap back valve so higher rpm has misfires. Can sometimes find hi leakdown but vaccum gauge best way.

When was the last time the LIM gaskets were done? I know on my 07 I had a misfire on cyl 6 and cyl 2 was the problem. The previous owner put 5 new standard plugs in and left cyl 2 on the original plug which was fouled out after 172k miles. Moral of that story was perhaps there might be another problem on another cylinder and it’s causing the code to show on another cylinder.

Ive got a miss at high load, high rpm on my NA 3800. No code, just a loss of power. Driving around normally you would never know until you get on the gas… Could it be one if these? I don’t have hp tuners so I can’t use that to troubleshoot 🤔

Kinda sounds like a bad/clogged intake filter or exhaust system, in my experience misfires happen as much at high load/low rpm scenarios. Plugs/wires are always good for these motors, so I would look into those 2 things first. Fuel filter may be worth checking as well.

Hi Bro! ¿Can i ask you something? I've some problems with my Grand prix GT supercharged, i need to see where is conected the two back pressure sensors, actually have one sensor conected to de valve purge, but, i see that the other pressure sensor is not connected to some place, my problem is " reduced engine power " and i cant resolve that, really i love my GT so i would like to have a solution 😔

Reduced wngine power usually comes from issues with the throttle body. Get the codes pulled first and see what you have.

p..s. I think you were the guy I was talking to recently about the noise my 3800 was making which I suspected was a collapsed lifer. Sounded like it was coming from the rear valve cover likely #6... well I removed the valve cover and didn't find any loose rockers so I thought it's probably just piston slap and kept driving. Now the noise is changing, sometimes it goes away almost completely and sometimes it becomes sporadic. But now it's misfiring.on #6 so I'm about to try and figure that out. I just hope I didn't have a collapsed lifter that took out the cam lobe.

@@SalemDoyle finally found mine! Once my harmonic balancer finally went completely bad and started making so much noise that I HAD to find the cause, I repalced that and my misfire went away. Apparently the harmonic balancer had been bad but the rubber was only partially torn for a very long time before it finally had a complete separation. It was causing a P0306 and a pending P0300. and it was causing a noise under certain circumstances but it wasn't very bad, sounded like valve noise. I'm guessing that had been going on for over a year and more than 40k miles
