i have a 97 dodge avenger that started chugging and engine light was on. dealership diagnosis was number 4 cylinder had a misfire due to worn out boots on valave cover gasket. I changed out gasket and boots on plug well and put in new plugs and plug wires and now its chugging again. Computer diagnosis from autozone is picking up an injector malfunction on number four cylinder. How do i fix it?
