Misfire on cylinder 8 problem. I have a trouble code reading device to test and reset the check engine light.
Replaced the following:
Spark plugs
Plug wires
Distributor cap
Distributor rotor
Removed the fuel injector from cylinder 8, it was fouled with what looked like carbon deposits. I clean it and swapped it with cylinder 6 injector. I still get cylinder 8 misfire error codes being generated.
I compression tested the engine, here are the results:
Cylinder, Pressure in PSI
1 - 150
2 - 130
3 - 150
4 - 150
5 - 140
6 - 150
7 - 135
8 - 100 - 110, added a little oil to cylinder then 115

Any ideas??
