09obpleg Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Could be as easy as it needs plugs, when was the last time they were done? Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators BarManBean Posted May 27, 2012 Moderators Share Posted May 27, 2012 You can also try moving the coil pack / injector on that cylinder to see if the misfire follows either one.

car_cursed Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 You can also try moving the coil pack / injector on that cylinder to see if the misfire follows either one. do this, one at a time to determine if it's the coil pack or injector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newlisbonlegacy Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I had the same issue, it ended up needed new plugs, coil packs and injectors..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckinyon Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 decided to go the least expensive way first. so i used a bottle of fuel injector cleaner with a full tank of gas. everything is good now. thanks for the input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
