Check for oil on the spark plug in cylinder #2. If there's oil, then you most likely need to replace the plug tube o-ring that sit between the rocker assembly and the head. They create a seal between the head and the rocker assembly where they meet at the spark plug tubes.

If you replace the plugs,the ones that were made for your vehicle. And possibly spark plug wires, it should make quite a difference. Good-Day! It could be a injector making its rough idle on cylinder 2, But do above first!

Number 2 cylinder misfire at idle. Runs smooth at 1000 rpms

Could be a loose connection at the plug or at the coils. Look at in the dark and see if you see any spark off.

My car runs really bad when it is wet or raining and it said the 5th cylider is miss firing. I replaced it and now it runs worse. The steering wheel shakes when it is idling

the steering wheel shaking at an idle is a whole seperate thing. if it shakes while idling i would say its a bad motor mount (or mounts)
If the rubber breaks or wears out in the center of the mount that the engine bracket bolts to, then the center of it lays closer to the metal outer shell of the mount from the weight of the engine. The outer shell is bolted directly to the frame so it resonates vibration through the frame and body instead of 'floating' in the center of a rubber cushion.
Once your accelerating the engine rotates up in the mount lifting the center off of the shell so the vibration goes away.

  • does the engine miss? bumps is a rythmic pattern?

  • is the idle rough in reverse?

  • open hood
  • start engine
  • Left foot on brake (hard)
  • start engine
  • watch engine as you select drive
  • still holding brake with left foot / throttle gas with right foot

99 suberban missing at idle after warm

Code shows missfire on No 1 cylider. When engine is cold it runs a rich mixture. If the missfire is still No 1 then check for vac leak on manifold. Perhaps a vac line or intake gasket.

2002 grand am 3400. # 5 cyl missfire

It sounds like the problem is isolated to that one cylider if that is the case you may want to check the compression on that cylinder if it is not electrical and no fuel problems it has to be lost of compression
