My camaro is misfiring on the 5th cylinder according to a computer that was hooked to it. We reaplaced the coil pack of the 5th cylinder and changed the plug wires but it's still missing. What could be causing this? We also put a can of sea foam gas additive to clean out the fuel injectors.

Check the sparkplug, compression and injector for that cylinder

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
