for your misfire issue, maybe try testing the coil after a long drive, when I had a similar issue the coil pack tested good when cold, but would start missing after 20 minutes of driving

Yes the interesting thing is I changed the plugs and it went away for a few weeks. Then the bugger started missing on Weds here. So I went to the parts mobile and pulled the first coil out with its spark plug wire and put it in on Weds night and the miss was gone for 2 days here. As my plug wires were a/m in Tetanus1. I wanted to replace them. So I put the original coil back in. As we know the plug and the wire both are good. Time will tell if this coil is still good or bad.
What stinks is that parts can test good and still be bad. I have seen that too many times in the past. Granted its more rare but it can happen. As I have 3 spare coils without even touching the fleet of 5 coils. I am actually in good shape.
I still be on the forum here just probably will be grumpy as I miss my garage time.
Before all changes here. I spent many a night and Saturdays in my garage repairing and rebuilding Toyotas.
And because of life changes here I am unable to do that at this time.
You will also notice that this was about the same time I really became active in this forum.
As I am unable to work on my fleet or tinker with mine at the moment. I just help everyone else fix theirs.
Being I have access to internet all the time. It helps me fill a void for now. My $$ job keeps me very connected.
