98 Explorer with SOHC V6 85k miles. Granddaughter borrowed it and brought it back with a steady miss sounding like 2 cylinders. It was very cold in the shed so I took it to a local GM dealer ( Ford dealer too far away) and had new plugs and wires put in. Still missed but not steady like before. The mechanic said the plugs did not look real bad. Thought it might be injectors and suggested putting cleaner in the fuel. I did, now it misses steady again. According to him it's the right rear cyls. It's warming up now and I can tinker with it. I hate to have a shop messing with it at 80 dollars an hour and charging list for parts. Thanks for any help, Larry
