Have a look at the plug, plug wire and injector on that #1 cylinder, when was your last tune up? Get a noid light and unplg the injector, plug the noid light in and see if it flashes as the car is running. if it does, plug injector back in, start car, listen or feel the injector for clicking. If you asr handy enough, you can swap that injector into a different cylinder and see if the misfire moves with it, also a compression test wouldnt hurt. engine needs three things to run, Spark at all plugs, gas to all cylinders, and compression in all cylinders, tho an engine may run lacking one in one cylinder, it won't run very well!

and this one! Also check the injectors with an ohm meter, should be 11-18 ohms, if not, replace it. |
