(Solved):Change wire and plug now code

[Amaster]

I'm having some trouble I just got the plugs done on 5.3 and I'm getting a code for miss fire on 2 well some people have said wires so I changed the wire from the plug behind it to that plug and still have the code help

Are you getting a misfire on the same cylinder after you swapped plugs?

You checked the gap on the plugs before installing, correct?

Pull the offending plug and inspect for any damage like a crack in the insulation and proper gap. If it looks fine, swap with another cylinder and see if it follows.

If it follows, it’s likely a bum plug.

As Wade said- check the #2 plug. At least it's an easy access. What plugs and from where did you get them? Still have the boxes?

Umm, Since you didn't tell us what it was.......what did you screw up?

Gap was wrong and plug was tighten down to much. Took the plug out readjusted it and tightened it correctly. Code disappeared, truck runs fine!
