I just got my first misfire, any other suggestions other than putting in good gas? I have 94 here in my city and filled it up and cleared the code. Hope it stays off. Should I swapped out the plugs for iridium ones once break in is done?
The stock plugs are iridium if I'm correct

Take the stock plugs out and make sure they're gapped properly. Different members have stated that the gap varies pretty wildly between the plugs sometimes. Try gapping them all to .030. That might resolve your issue and only takes about 15 minutes.

Thanks! Much appreciated. Are their any specific DIY's out for doing plugs yet?

Are you getting the P0300? or does your code relate to the exact cylinder as you stated in your previous posts?

Actually, the owner's manual states the recommended gap to be between .027-.031 in. on Page No. 267. Livernois recommended .030 to another member a few days ago, so that's why I recommended the .030 for the stock plugs. On a tuned car, I'd narrow the gap a little bit and run .028. :D

My stock plugs were at .28, my point being is don't tell people to just make them .30 when they could already be at .28 and going to .30 will just make things worse, sorry I didn't spell it out and make myself clear, I got a bad habit about that
