3rd gen 4runner #5 misfire
Hey guys,
I've been having a problem with my cylinder 5 misfiring and ive replaced the spark plug, the wires, and the coil pack. My MAF recently went out and I assumed that was the cause so I replaced that to, $220 down the drain :/ and I was still having the same problem. Is
there something else that could be causing cylinder #5 to misfire?

Well after no responses, I just started tinkering around on the motor and it turns out the misfire was due to a clogged fuel injector. So I put 12V of power to it to get the valve thing inside to open up and then sprayed some rubbing alcohol in it and blew really hard through it and watched all the gunk fly out. Now runs like champ
