Misfires can be caused by worn or fouled spark plugs, a weak spark (weak coil, bad spark plug wire), loss of compression, vacuum leaks, anything that causes an unusually lean fuel mixture (lean misfire), an EGR valve that is stuck open, dirty fuel injectors, low fuel pressure, or even bad fuel

Hello,

Did you just check the plugs and wires or did you change them? If just checked at least replace the plugs.

Check Fuel Pressure, Compression, and for Vacuum Leaks.
