I hope you are doing well with gustav hitting your area. I again appreciate all your help on this issue
Ok, so here is what is new. Before swapping fuel injectors, I put a bottle of Lucas Fuel Injector cleaner. It runs great with a half bottle of the stuff. As soon as its done with the cleaner in the tank, the misfire comes back. But I can put half a bottle into the gas tank (about half full tank of gas ) and it will run and idle great with no rough idle at all, even at a traffic light! So what gives? A mechanic I know told me he thinks its a bad O2 sensor based off what I told him, he hasn't actually seen or test driven the vehicle. Any ideas on why the fuel injector cleaner clears up the misfire? Quote:

If you've already ruled out coil, plug and injector by cross swapping then the next step is to check signals to those components with a oscilloscope and compression test/leakdown test. If you have an 04 and up V8 it could be valvetronic related as well... if all else fails pay for professional diagnosis.
