Still getting Misfire code

I have had this ongoing problem for a few weeks.

I got a check engine code for the #1 cylinder.
I changed the plug and put a new coil in.
The code is back again!
Anyone with ideas on what to do next?

Thanks

Well that sounds good compared to my (1,2,3,4,5,6 random misfire - random multi misfire - fuel train - codes that I got about a month ago)

Not sure what your problem could be. Mine was a poorly installed neo

Good Luck, Hope you figure it out

You might have bent a valve.. go get a compression test done and report back.

If I can find it somewhere I will try it.
I just dumped about 8-9 oz of Lucas in the tank.
That is what I use on a regular basis, when I change the oil.

A compression tester can be had for 20-30 bucks, all you need to do is take out all your plugs and screw in the tester to each cylinder. Very simple procedure.
