- PULLED CODES AND A P0303 WAS PRESENT FOR A CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE, PULLED RIGHT BANK PLUGS FOR INSPECTION, AND REPLACEMENT IS RECOMMENDED BUT IS NOT THE CAUSE OF THE MISFIRE. SWAPPED THE COIL AND PLUG FROM THE AFFECTED CYLINDER TO CYL 2 AND THERE WAS NO CHANGE, THE MISFIRE STAYED AT CYL 3. PERFORMED AN INJECTOR FLOW TEST FOR THAT BANK AND ALL CAME BACK AT 17 WHICH IS GOOD NO ISSUES THERE. AT THIS TIME THE ONLY REMAINING POSSIBILITY IS A MECHANICAL FAILURE OR CARBON RELATED ISSUE. CHECKED INTAKE AND EXHAUST VALVES WITH A BORESCOPE AND THEY DID APPEAR TO HAVE SOME SEVERE PITTING ON BOTH VALVES. AT THIS POINT THE NEXT STEP WOULD BE TO PERFORM A CYLINDER LEAK DOWN TEST TO VERIFY THERE IS IN FACT A MECHANICAL ISSUE
