Hi,
Other than the cylinder eight misfire, are there any other codes? Also, when you delete the code, is the misfire gone?
This can be the result of several things. For example, a faulty temperature sensor, engine vacuum leak, fuel pressure (too high or low), a plugged catalytic converter, and so on all can cause it.
Let's start simple. First, let me know if there are other codes. Next, let me know if there is any gray smoke from the exhaust.
If you have a live data scan tool, let me know what the short-term fuel trims are. The will help me determine if there is an air/fuel ratio issue.
Here is a link to get you started. This explains how to check for engine vacuum leaks.

Let me know what you find.
Take care,
Joe
