Lol, i got a misfire this morning also. Please see my post " Engine Light of doom " Turns out mine was a little low on oil though, so hoping that was the problem.

You sure its a misfire and not your MAP sensor ?

Its worth searching on 'MAP Whack' and seeing if that sorts it

Here's one thread on it

You getting a CEL ?

If it was misfiring I would expect it to trigger the CEL.

Mine did that, but there was a flashing CEL to accompany the misfire.

That was injectors.

Check Engine Light.

How do you know there wasn't one if you don't know what it is?
