So I've been having a problem with shuddering at highway speeds when accelerating slowly for around half a year now. It's clearly a misfire, but it generally won't set a code, however, it did set a code off once for a misfire on cylinder 6. I swapped coils, but I couldn't get it to set off another code. I then decided to go ahead and get a new coil, but that wasn't it. So today I changed the spark plug with an Autolite HT1. I went to drive it on the highway and it still shuddered on the on-ramp, though it didn't shudder anymore after that. So I'm not quite sure if the shuddering has been fixed, but whatever the case, should I just go ahead and replace all of the spark plugs? The plug I removed today was pretty hard to get out, but once I was able to crack it it came out easily enough. I've had these ones for about 53,000 miles or so. I can get new ones for about $6 each after rebate. Any thoughts?
