Tonight when i was working on the car I guess i accidentley unplugged one of the cop's i started the car and realized it was missing, so i checked that all the injectors were plugged in and no problems there then i thought maybe it was something else so I drove down the street and back still missing. I take another look under the hood and realize that it was the cop that was unplugged for some reason. So my question is did I screw something up by driving it (very very slowly mind you) with that cop unplugged?

Thanks!!

i was actually mis-firing for about a month, on two cylanders, and i drove the car the same way i normally drive it, hard at times, and after i fixed it i havent had a problem since. when i was trying to figure out what cylander was missing, not having a code reader, i simply unplugged the injectors to see which one made a difference. and sure enough i found it. so i would have to say that it positively did no damage what-so-ever..my .2
