I keep getting a cylinder 2 misfire code and I have done everything from plugs all the to changing intake gaskets. Still can't get rid of light. Any ideas?

First off welcome to RF. Have you swapped the coils from number two to four and see if the code fallows? That will rule out the coil pack. How do the plugs look? Miles on the engine?

Also you gotta push down real hard on the wire boot to get the CLICK you need. Coil packs require some finnese too and inch pounds of Torqing. Kenneths idea is the check all though. Changing the Intake Gasket on an 04 might be a good idea as that is on my 2012 list! Good luck.

I moved the coil. Replaced the secondary ignition and I made sure to click the wires down and still misfire. I'm stumped. Only has 85k

pull the covers and check the springs and push rods. Might as well get that one out of the way. Also just check the wiring harness around the coil for any frayed wires.
