I have a bad misfire that I've had a hell of a time diagnosing. It's in the #5 cylinder (driver's side middle).
I pulled out the plug the other day and #5 was soaked with gas, leading me to believe that the fuel injector is bad.
Truck has a lot of miles on it so anything is possible, but before I even pull the upper intake to swap the injector, I'm curious if anyone has had to replace an injector in one of these trucks before, since injector failures are not all that common in any vehicle.
I was thinking about just swapping the injectors from the right side bank to the left to make sure the problem moves as well. The passenger side injectors are (relatively) easy to get to compared to the driver's side.
