  1. Did you check the plug wires or ignition coil?  


  2. If this problem is in firing order It's likely in your igniton system and if it's in your cylender alignment you have a burnt head gasket. Simple as that assuming that you have a six cylender motor otherwise I can't advise you.

  3. First would have swapped the plugs with the other cylinders to see if it was the plugs.  If the misfiring moved - then it is the plug.  If misfiring remained, look at the hi tension leads next, or distributor cap or valve adjustment on those 2 cylinders.    Anything else that is surface for those 2 cylinders(like vacuum hoses or cooling or? would be checked) Not the gasket.

  4. Mite have wirers crossed,Or just bad wirers

  5. it might have a couple of bad plug wires or where the wires goes on the distributor cap or coil pack could be corroded.

  6. Most of the cars today have two, three or more coil packs  depending on the number of cylinders your engine has. Check that the coil pack that goes to number 3 and 4 cylinders and see if they are connected to the same coil pack, if both are connected to that coil pack it may have went out. If 3 and 4 plug wires go to different coil packs each, then it probably isn't the coil packs.

  7. Have you changed the spark plugs, wires, and distributor cap/rotor? Cause if the SPARK PLUG is misfiring I'd try that first, instead of an intake gasket...
