plug wires
a water test of themwhile its running will tell if they are shorting out

Re: engine light code 43
Thanks for all your input, it did just end up being either
plugs,distributor cap, or rotor. I changed them all last week, and
cleared the code with a scanner (misfire in cylinder 1). Still no
engine light after about 200 miles. Funny thing is I changed the plugs,
wires, cap, and rotor last spring?

I've gotten bad parts before. You're the tester,
not the manufacturer.
