About a week ago after it rained I noticed my Explorer was shuddering as I was accelerating. Around 60mph or so it started shuddering badly and the CEL started flashing. We took it in to the shop, and they said the number 7 cylinder had misfired, but they lacked the tools to do anything about it. It still shudders when accelerating at times, but not as violently. I haven't changed anything on the car since I got it (65,000 miles, now about 68,000) other than getting the oil changed. I'm thinking it's the coil. What do you guys think it could be and could I fix it myself?
