Misfire cylinder#2 has me stumped!!!

Hey guys i have a 97 tacoma 3.4 thats giving a #2 misfire code, ive changed the plugs and wires ohmed the coil pack swapped coilpacks around and still get this. Heres the kicker anything i do like pull the plug and replace it will run fine for a mile maybe 10 then comes back. Ive been told to do a valve leakdown test and to check the crank pulley bolt but if i had a issue there wouldnt it miss all the time?
