cops? did you change the spark plugs or the coils?
Swap # 6 & 1 coils to 2 other cylinders, see if the missfire's migrate with them. |
Do not keep driving the truck in this condition or you stand to burn both sides cats.
Then you will be in for more than 2 cylinders missfiring for cost and hassle. Non firing cylinders burns gas in the cats and can melt them. Good luck. |
I agree Bluegrass
With 2 misfiring cylinders the CEL should of been flashing |
Same issue
I had much the same issue. Changed the plugs and the problem was solved.
