Hey guys having an issue just wondering if anyone else has experienced this? I looked around and could not find a specific or even close enough topic to match so here it is. I was driving along and felt a slight miss in the engine.....whatever no biggie I was heading to a doctors appt. Well just short of the hospital out of no where car goes from a happy OBX Humm to Sounding like an 80's model 4 stroke motor cycle low groan. I can feel the car shaking and idling off so I figured I burn a plug or two. Moderate fuelly smell pretty much a given what is goin on here. Well I took it and had the code read off because it caused the CEL to blink repeatedly while driving. Code said CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE, forgot the code though. So I replaced all the plugs and it is still doing it.
Well on the Cylinder 2 coil pack Stem toward the bottom but not at the bottom there was an obvious electrical burn mark on the outside of the stem. Not bad or melted but very much present. I am kind of at a loss here and assuming that the coil pack is bad itself. If that were true though wouldn't it show a code for MISFIRE on 3 as well since the 2 coil powers both two and 3??? Car will run and drive but sucks gas a little more, It idles rough but not so rough it wont run, it is out of balance but not so out of balance that is rattles your teeth. I am assuming that both middle cylinders are dead.
THis is the order and way the plugs looked when I pulled them, clearly two is fouled

THis is the Burn on the plug in the relative spot to the burn on the wire
Below you can see the Burn on the wire, its toward the bottom and whitish
Either way need some Ideas on what you think. I would assume the pack is back BUT the additional plug on that particular pack says otherwise.
