I have a 2001 Mustang GT and about a week ago it felt like i had lost a cylinder. The check engine light has never come on to point me in any direction. I have changed the spark plugs and 1 injector that was bad. So far it seems to have done nothing for it.

Sorry I didn't see that you had already replaced the plugs. Have you have the fuel pressure tested ?
