I am back again. sorry. well I did a major tune-up including all three coils about eight months ago. I replaced also I think it is called the EGR. today I replaced the air filter, MAS, both o2 exhaust sensors. still getting the random misfire code. it runs very rich. could it be a bad injector? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

What spark plugs and wires did you use? These cars have a fairly strong spark coming out of the coil that seems to wear out off-brand plugs and wires quickly. OEM stuff does pretty well. Everything else I have tried in them starts to fail within about six months.
