soo my friend wanted to paint my fender, and like an idiot i let him, it took him 2 weeks and the cai was outside getting weathered, i dont knwo if that had anything to do with it but when i started the car i got check engine light. it was cylinder 8 misfire, i cleared it and still same cylinder came up. i replaced the injector on that cylinder, and made no difference, then i replaced all the spark plug wires.. i replaced spark plugs 20k miles ago, so i didnt think it was that. my last hope is the coil, anyone have advice??? thnaks

Ifyou friendtook your CAI off or exposed it to the elements,I'm going to assume your friend painted the pass. side fender. The #8 cylinder is the furthest rearward on the drivers side. You stated you changed the wires and havedoubts about your coil(s) so I'll assume you have a 96-98? You can try swapping coils side to side to see if the problem changes banks. If it does you'll get a misfire on the #4 cylinder. Might try swapping the wires around as well. Don't rule out a bad plug on that hole either. Even with only 20k on em'.

Just my thoughts/guess' with the info you gave us.
