My 2000 Acura 3.2TL yesterday indicated a flashing CEL and now the TCS light came on. The codes pulled indicated multiple and random misfires (P0300) and misfires in 5 of 6 cylinders (all except Cylinder 5).

I replaced the EGR Valve and the spark plugs. I think now that it might be the coil packs. I have no idea which cylinder is #5 so I can swap the coil pack with #4 or #6 and see if the code switches to a different cylinder.

A description would be great and any other thoughts on what might be causing this would be great as well.

Thanks!

thats how the cylinders look
did u check the gap on the spark plugs?, put seafoam in the intake port, the gas take and the oil. check out the seafoam thread
what kind of gas r u using? make sure all connections to the coil are tight.

 

You sure about that?

According to the Helms manual it goes:

Rear 1 2 3
Front 4 5 6

Firing order 142536

 

that was from my memory, but if thats what it says in the helms manual that thats what it is.

 

This is the correct cylinder arrangement.
