Re: misfires?
did u pull your plugs and see what they look like?
if they are coated in oil or there is oil in there then its probably the valve cover gasket... and in that case you might as well just get new plugs, wires, and the gasket

Re: misfires?
thanks ill check that out, and the thing at autozone said 1 of the misfires could be an ignition problem. and if i let my car sit with lights on or something for a couple min. after the cars off its hesitent to start would that just mean i need a new battery??
