I have an engine miss at idle. Miss started after replacing spark plugs. Had to also replace upper plennum gaskets because had to take that loose to get the back plugs. Ran fine for about 2 weeks. Then a minor miss started. In gear at idle. Then the miss got worse. Turned engine light on. Had P403. Removed the upper plennum and pulled #3 plug out. It was fouled. Replaced the plug and the coil, because it had a crack in it. Thought that was my problem. It wasent. Still have miss. Not missing under load like plug wires would. Worse when it is a cold start. Cant find a vacuum leak. No codes.
