    Have you checked to make sure the problem isn't fuel related? Are your fuel pressure regulators okay?

    I found the problem:
    I tested my plug wires putting a plug on it and looking for fire on it.
    all clylinders seamed ok
    I changed plug wires but thoses I bought were not good
    I tested the ohm resistor of each plug wire and 2 where cut intoo the plug cap.So when i tested each plug wire with a rev metter it seamed ok but finaly the problem was not the wire but the plug cap...So much work for it !
    changed for OE products and now the car is ok...
    I found too whater intoo the head around the plug for cyl 5 and 6 and it was thos that shut down.So I think having whater here can destroy the plug cap (And I have the good seals but...)
    Thanks for so mny answers to my questions.
    Bye

    Sometimes the O2 sensor will get a buildup on it. Cleaning it by wiping it off with brake cleaner can improve its performance and save you the costly replacement.

    I like that idea, though how do you identify which cylinder is bad?

    Great job!!! :)
