Misfire codes
Misfire codes
So ongoing problem before i say anything i already replaced sparkplugs and also coil 3 (think i need to do the rest)
Lets say when i do some spirited driving around 80mph the car begins to have a vibration and the engine light will blink and will blink about 10-15 times and then turn off as i slow down. 4 days this week the car would actually missfire a few seconds after cold start ill shut it off and start it again with no misfire. Cold start misfire says cylinder 1 when im doing 80 i get a vibration and a misfire on cylinder 3 what i think i need to do now is replace the rest of the coils and also do my upstream o2’s being that i have a cheap set in there from the previous owner car also smells like its running really rich if i also dont havw the ac on it will have a slight surge at idle

Just to verify, you already replaced both plugs, and verified gap on them correct?
And cylinder 1 is the front right cylinder, and 3 sits in the middle, directly behind 1. Just want to make sure you aren't replacing coils on 2 and 4 accidentally.
In the meantime I would swap the coils from 1 and 3 over to other cylinders on the opposite bank just to see if the codes switches to those cylinders.
