Question Details Asked:Jan 10, 2013 - 02:41 PMStatus:Closed

macoville	2009 Kia Rio engine trouble. I have a 2009 Kia Rio that recently had the check engine light come on, the engine "jumps around" and seems to have absolutely no power (even less than usual) tried for 3 hours with a code reader and finally got the result that cylinders 1 and 2 are not firing. We changed the spark plugs with no success, any suggestions?
