I have an '08 V8 Sportrak limited that developed an intermittent miss with no engine codes. It has about 70K miles on it so I figured it's just time to change the plugs. They had never been changed before so that went about as well as you would expect. Once I got the broken pieces out of the two affected cylinders and scoped them out with my Snap-On borescope, I finished putting in the plugs and changed all the coils just for the heck of is.
My wife drove it to the store and reported that it still ran rough then it threw a code that the #2 cylinder wasn't firing. I replaced the fuel injector and both the coil and injector connectors in case there was a short. Still got a code on #2 .
Next I checked the compression and it matched all the cylinders on that side.
What am I missing? Are there any common things I should know about?
