Exclamation cylinder 1 Missfire!

Alright, I have searched and this is what I have done:

switched the #1 and #3 coils.
Switched the #1 and #2 Wires.
Checked all conections.

I am going to go up to Autozone tomorrow at 7 am and hook it up to the OBD2. If it changes cyl. then I know the problem, otherwise its a fouled plug or Bad injector. I am leaning to Ignition cause it smells rich. I just hope its not a broken valve spring or something.

I ran some Red Line fuel system cleaner through it Saturday, problem just started today (8 pm, 50 miles later). Oil is clean.

Any other suggestions???

THanks!

How's it running? Check your bank 1 O2 sensor response. If its toast, it can be loading up. Just something else to look for while its on the scanner. I should vary between like 200-800 when you rev/let off. If it sits at 447 or 451 then its not talking. If it stays high then its toast or bad wiring and it will start leaning out. If it stays low it will load up (think i got those two correct). Either way it should fluctuate quite a bit, just compare it to the right side.

Thanks for the advise gobeer net. I went and drove her around a little bit and she still ran like ***. Filled her up with some fresh 93, and still ***. Made a u turn, got on it about 1/2 throttle and she was bucking and all, when all of the sudden, HELLLLLLO! She woke up and cleaned right up.

Ran like a stripped *** ape up to 125 or so. Its nice to have her back. Thanks guys!
