Misfire cylinder 3

I have a P0303, misfire cylinder 3.

Who - 2006 Speed6 manual, with 80,000 miles
What - P0303, however I cannot feel the misfire
When - Upon receipt of car, and re-appeared with 50 miles of clearing code

I am going to swap the plug to cylinder 2 and the coil to cylinder 4 to see if it is one of those. I also have access to a fairly comprehensive OBD2 scanner, loaded with the mazda specific software - Is there a way I can use this to help diagnose the misfire?

Many Thanks,

Jack

You very likely have a coil failing. Replace them all, if one is going the rest are right behind it.


If you have a good scan tool it should have the option to display current misfires. You may not feel it, but it is very likely there.
