Had a misfire code on cylinder eight. Changed the coil pack. When I drove it again it didn’t have much power and another code for misfire on cylinders two and three. Should I just change all the coil packs or is there something bigger causing the loss of power issue?

Good morning,

What about the plugs? They are just as important as the coils.

Did you do a compression test?

Random misfire is usually caused by low fuel pressure. Have you tested the fuel pressure?
