Hey Everyone, this will be a bit long but I am in need of some advice pertaining to my truck. I drive a 2016 Dodge Ram 1500 SXT Hemi, 172,000kms, 6 speed, 4x4. My truck started getting sluggish a little over a month ago, finally threw a code. Cylinder 2 misfire. I replaced all spark plugs as I had never done it before. I installed iridium plugs(maybe this is causing the new issue but not sure), ran injector cleaner through(the bottle through the tank, dumped in empty tank, filled all the way up after). I then installed a new pcv valve. All of these things seemed to help improve performance but something still isn't quite right. Air filter is clean. Oil changed done religiously every 10,000, still using conventional oil, plan on switching to synthetic next change. I don't know a whole lot about engines but it still seems like it isn't quite getting enough fuel during acceleration. The bottom end was pretty sluggish before the new plugs and pcv valve but seems fine now. I notice it more above 1500rpm and up when accelerating. If I used the wrong plugs let me know. I am just trying to figure out what is wrong with it. It's my work truck and personal truck, I put over a tank of fuel through a week, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
