you may have to replace the cowl pack itself that sit on top of the spark plug and sometimes you can get by just changing the boot wish you the best of luck Michigan Man.

A misfire doesn't always have to be ignition... it's just the most common cause. Faulty or plugged injector, low compression. You need to check fuel pressure and test the fuel injector flow. Then check compression. If you don't have tools for these tests, take it to someone who does. Testing is much cheaper than throwing parts at the problem.

Hi. My 2006 Cadillac CTS indicates codes 7EA and 7E8. The check engine light is on. The car misses especially when driving uphill. Getting worse. Thanks, Jill

check gaps in spark plugs ,25th if too wide this will cause a misfire ,if problem persists even with new plugs then change the coil packs .if the plug gaps are not adjusted every 10.000kms then the coil has to jump a bigger gap causing the coil pack to fail

What is causing misfire on cylinders 2, 4, and 6?

Could be injectors, but I would focus on the spark plugs and coils. I'm not sure if you have a coil pack on your car, or individual coils on each spark plug. If the plugs and coils are ok, then check the injection. All your codes are the same bank, so it could possibly be your fuel rail is not getting correct pressure.
