started missing on few occassion on acceleration. I checked the DI and the coils seems fine (no oil leak). I did the serpentile belt-alternator-top engine mounts recently and might have disturbed the wires. I had unplugged (aquarium) one of the wires that went through the lower top engine mount.
Since the crank sensor tells the DI when to fire, you could check for sparks by opening the DI, installing the spark plugs into the DI, grounding all 4 plugs and start the car while someone watch for sparks, if DI is new and no sparks == crank sensor bad.
Also make sure that fuel system is good, especially the fuel pump and that you air filter is not plugged.
