That's what I get for driving the jeep..... so yesterday I decided to dust off the heep and take it to the M&G. On it's way out of the driveway check engine light came on, I grabbed my code reader and it came up with cylinder 1 misfire detected... well fine.. I reset the code, reseated the plug wire and all was good. When I got to the M&G (10 minutes later give or take) same code came up again. Figuring it's a bad spark plug wire I swapped it with a spare and it seemed to run fine till on the way back home it came up again.
Figuring enough is enough I picked up new wires and new cap and rotor (those were fairly old while plugs have probably less then 10K on them: champion truck plugs).
Popped the cap and rottor off today to find that my distributor is WAY wobbly. Ok, back to Kragen, got a new distributor, popped that in, reassembled everything with new cap rotor and wires and guess what comes up again....... yup, you guessed it: Cylinder 1 misfire.
Ok, it could be ..... plug or could it be a bad injector? What should be my next step in trying to figure it out?
