    Need help/direction with missfire issue

    Thats what I ve been thinking. I just want to be sure. I would like to know what caused the failure so I can make any needed repairs. Is there any other steps to confirm the pcm condition, other than what has been mentioned?

    I installed a new cop and did a compression check while I was there. Compression looks good. I even tried a HEI test on the #8 and # 5 cop. Test plug fires off on #5, nothing on #8. I pulled the injector connectors on at a time, all result in a rougher idle except # 8. I hesitate to say this but...
