It sounds like it might be an intake gasket between those two cylinders. Take a compression test and see how they read. Good luck

If you're not using the right gas , it will make it "miss". I had a 96 that did the same thing. If it states on th gas cap to use "premium fule only" you need to use that. This may not be your problem but it was mine. Had everything cleaned up and began using premium fuel and it was fine.
