Best Answer

I have a 1998 Isuzu Amigo and ran into this problem after installing a new intake gasket. I purchased a Hayes repair manual and used their diagram to reconnect the plug wires and found out that it was incorrect. I have also seen the same diagram on the internet. The books states the firing order on the coil is 1-3-4-2 from left to right but is actually 1-4-3-2 from left to right facing the engine. Hope this helps.

What is causing my p0306 code in my 06 durango. it's a 4.7l . i know its the misfire code. the cylinder has good compression. coilpack is not bad. replaced spark plugs 2 times no difference?

Could be a bum fuel injector. Pull number 6 spark plug again, if it is wet you have a spark problem. If the plug is bone dry you have a fuel problem, probably a bad injector. Swap injector with another cylinder and see if the misfire switches cylinders or remains on number 6 cylinder.


What is cylinder Misfire?

Theres three coil packs; one fires two cylinders. I suppose if one is bad then it could cause the two corresponding to misfire. I had one cylinder misfire, it turned out to be the fuel injector.


Your 99 Explorer's service engine light keeps coming on It's always 4 cylinder misfire cold start changed wire and plug what gives?

Think a little deeper. Combustion that fails is a misfire. You have addressed the spark side of it. There is a fuel and compression possible trouble. Try swapping the fuel injector for that cylinder with another and see if the misfire moves to the other cylinder. Compression test the cylinder to see if it is in specs. Try a cylinder leak down test and see if it is losing compression. Perhaps there is a carbon build up on the valves preventing good seating?


What could cause a Cylinder 1 Misfire code on a 1999 Chrysler Sebring?

Spark plug, wire, coil, low compression, fuel injector, intake leak, etc.


What could cause a misfire on one cylinder after changing plugs wires ignition coil fuel injector and compression is at 180 pounds per cylinder and spark is getting to the cylinder?

I would make sure power is getting to the fuel injector use a noid light to test it. You may also want to check the fuel pressure also the intake manifold may have a leak that can cause a misfire as well. Glad your compression is good. That is a sure sign its something simple.


What does cylinder 4 misfire detected mean?

It means the #4 cylinder is misfiring. Can be bad plug, plug wire, burnt valve or blown head gasket. Replace all the plugs and wires and see if the misfire goes away. If not, run a compression test on all cylinders.

It could.

Check the spark plug and the plug wire. If that isn't the problem then check compression. You could also have a bad fuel injector.


What would cause a cylinder 3 misfire in a 2002 Chevrolet S-10?

If your plugs, wires, cap, rotor and a compression test check out okay I would suspect the #3 fuel injector.

In any car, if you have a specific cylinder misfire, check the spark plug, spark plug wire, fuel injector, and compression. The computer could also have a problem. You will need to consult the detailed manufacturer's diagnostic chart for that, but the basics remain the same.
