Default mystery missfire in cylinder 6

OK here it goes i have a slight miss thats noticable at idle and can be seen

on a scanner so i tried swapping wires they are msd and nothin then i put in

a new plug then swapped injectors then coil packs and the problem never

moved or changed i checked compression for the hell of it and it was at 125

hooked up a vaccum gauge to the car and it was steady so im out of ideas

the only thing i can think of is that the scanner is reading the wrong cylinder

because i read on here somewhere that some scanners mix up cylinders 6

and 8 but other than that im dry

try swapping the coil it is what produces the spark in the first place.
