i just wanted to put a reply in here for people to see what i found out ...
It turns out I live in PA..Bought my Truck in Pa..to find out it was manufacter'd in California ..So it has Cali emissions ..meaning the Root of all the bucking & kicking
turned out to be The Y pipe has 5 catalytics inside plus the main catalytic converter
my mechanic ( A different ) garage found it. He took the converter off ran it with out it to find the Y pipe had major clocking ,, So it cost $1300 for the pipe to be bought & shipped from Cali since you cannot get them from Pa.. needless to my check engine light
is now OFF...that was my misfire #2 so everyone check your YPIPES....and the front of your engine to see if sticker states California emissions or federal ....this was a costly misfire almost $ 4500 total to find this .....thanks Ami
