Engine Mechanical problem
1996 Geo Prizm Automatic 160000 miles

the check engine linght on my prizim started flashing and i know that is not good so i took it to a local parts shop for them to rum a check on the light and they told me that cylinder 4 is misfiring. I asked what i would need to do inorder to fix the issue and they advised to check a repair guide. well i have done this as well as some things that a friend told me to check and nothing has helped. while driving it shutters a little while getting up to speed but when i reach about 45 mph it shakes harder and the car has problems getting up past 45 - 50 mph. Do you have any ideas what i can do to fix this?
