Have 1997 Ford 150 xl ,how do i change coil pock on #2 cyclinder.it is showing it is misfiring.?

change coil and boot kit... I hope you torqued the spark plug correctly or you blow it out of the cylinder head... No joke !!!

Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected po302 . Evaporative Emission Control System po440 The last digit on a misfire code indicates the cylinder number. A code P0302, for example, would tell you cylinder #2 is misfiring. Chances are the misfire is due to a weak ignition coil. Did you change the pcv valve? Remember to put the o-ring on the new one or this problem will happen.

You either have a bad ignition coil or the ignition module.What you can do is swap the 2 coils to see if the misfire changes cylinders.If it does then it is the coil if not then it is the module.The module is located under the coils.Hope this helps.Good luck.Let me know if you have anymore questions.

pls check the compression

your ford should have 2 coil packs if 4,5,and 6 are on the same coil pack change it hope this helps CJ

P0301 cyl 1 misfire, P0304 cyl 4 misfire, P0305 cylinder 5 misfire. Possibly the ignition module.

Misfire could be caused from bad plugs, plug wires, coils, injectors or fuel pressure. How many miles on the plugs and wires? Were the plugs gapped correctly? Time for a tune-up? You can get the parts you need as well as firing order and diagragm to show which cylinder is 1, 2, 3, 4,5 and 6 at Auto Zone.

PO302 is being a misfire, could mean the plug is bad or the coil is bad for that cylinder. Which can give you the misfire reading and the system to lean codes. Check the #2 coil for firing.

Check spark plugs and wires. Could also be defective Coil.
I recommend replacing all plugs and wires at the same time.

Assuming the plugs and wires have been changed. I would look at the bottom of the coil pack. They tend to crack and short out.

Or if it's got coil packs they will also crack and short out.
