I changed my spark plugs out a few weeks ago. In an attempt to visit with my family up north my engine light started blinking. I was able to limp home but before that I stopped at an Advance auto parts store to have them hook up their computer for a quick diognostic check. I know that this is only vague but it was a start. They informed me that #2 and #4 cylinders were mis-firing. Not knowing why at this point I thought that I would go ahead and change the wires. This did not help. I checked the spark in the #5 and compared that with #4. They both looked fine. At this point I am left with no other choice but to take it to a dealership. My question is this, what can I expect to hear from them?

If you checked and have spark, you may be dealing with stuck injectors. Try tapping on the injectors and see if that changes anything. If you have any other questions, we'll try to answer them.
