Welcome to CL. your thread has been moved to the performance/maintenance sub forum.
Likely you lost a coil or have a bad ecu. do a search for sc400 and coil that is the most common issue.
on the sc400 there are 2, and it will involve checking both to see if either is bad by unplugging them one at a time and seeing if it makes a difference. that one that makes no difference is the bad one.
