Engine problem
2002 Buick Century V6 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 135000 miles

I took My Bucik century to Autozone to have the code read. It came up as cylinder5 misfires. The rep said that it could be a bad spark plug or the wire can be Bad. Is this true? He also said I need a oxygen sensor.

YOU HAVE OVER 100K ON IT
I WILL DO A COMPLETE TUNE UP PLUGS WIRES AND FILTERS AND RESET CHECK ENGINE DRIVE FOR ABOUT 50 MILES AND OR FEW DAYS
YOU MAY NOT NEED AN O2 SENSOR
IF TUNE UP IS BAD DO THAT FIRST
GOOD LUCK
