Need Help

hi ya there

got a little problem and like to get some advices

car got some misfire the other day so i have inspected my coil pack loom and had that replaced due to some damages on it. the car still has the problem but not as much and just today i had tested it out with a different coil pack igniter to be safe and shows no improvements.

i pulled out each coil pack plugs and found that no.3 was problem and only number 3.

coilpacks are new (nearly a year old), the spark plugs are fine had both coil pack and spark plug swap with the other one in the car and no improvements

dont know what else i should check

so even if you swap the coils with another cylinder the misfire is still at number 3 cylinder? if so that narrows it down a bit. it may be a faulty injector, or possibly you have lost compression in that cylinder (that's worst case scenario).

yeah ive checked everything even igniter pack but yeah found the problem, the injector in no.3 is the problem

pulled the injector 3 out and swapped it with no.1 and now 3 is good but 1 isnt

the thought of no3. had lost compression had cross my mind thank goodness it wasnt the case

time for a replacement

thanks for your help guys
