Hi Ray,

Have you checked the usual culprits (distributor, cap, rotor arm, coils, little graphite thingy in the top of the cap, Marelli control boxes (swap them over to see if the bank that has the missfire changes))

You may find that simply disturbing the connections both at the engine end and the fuse box, then cleaning them will have a positive effect on the problem smile
