Just to eliminate the possibility, I'd swap cylinder 3's coil and plug with another cylinder just to make sure there's not a fault with the new stuff. If the fault remains and follows the cylinder you moved that coil and plug to then that's your issue. Costs nothing to try. I only say that because I had a similar issue with my BA. My mechanic used cheap coils and so the problem remained. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92123-fg-f6-cylinder-3-misfire/page/2/#findComment-1598714 Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no mistaking which one is for what cylinder Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92123-fg-f6-cylinder-3-misfire/page/2/#findComment-1598720 Share on other sites More sharing options...
