In about two days my car has gone from healthy to really bad idle. It will idle rough and then dip down and almost stall. The problem came out of nowhere pretty much. I am not noticing any sluggishness while driving under throttle though. The OBDII scanner says: P0301 "Cylinder 1 misfire"
A few thousand miles ago I had a similar problem but the car also considerably lacked power above 3k rpm and was quite sluggish and gradually got worse over a few hundred miles. I replaced the plugs and plug wires/boots and that solved the problem, but now I have this rough idle that seems to have come out of left field.
Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing the problem? I can trust that the scanner pinpointed the problem cylinder accurately? Any help is greatly appreciated guys.
