Exhaust manifold had cracked and at same time the MIL indicator light came on with car subsequently misfiring. Replaced manifold and since was slightly overdue, also the timing belt, and plugs since (#4 was only bad one). Coinciidently, the crack was between #3&4 ports. The main electronic contorl(i don't recall name of it) was also checked and appears OK.Car still misfires at #4(most noticable during acceleration and low RPMs) but seems to run pretty smooth at about 2,000-2,200 rpm. Compression checks out OK , as do plug wires. Suggestions?

Thank you.
