That'd usually mean that it's either running richer on that half, or that those cylinders are getting oil into the combustion chamber.

Why does your Mazda pickup b2300 1997 misfires cannot go faster than 55 miles per hour?

I would start by checking the Catalytic converter. It is likely plugged forcing the exhaust gases back into the motor, fouling out the EGR valve and your oxygen sensor. Another cheaper problem is changing the spark plugs and wires. The plugs being dirty will cause the motor not to fire in that cylinder and the wire being no good won't send the electric pulse to the plug so it can spark. But it not going over 55 would likely be the catalytic converter and EGR valve, unless half of your spark plugs are horribly fouled.
