I still haven't been able to get the code ran. However, it's definitally misfiring, and Im a little perplexed as I can't find the coils/spark plugs since is a 6 cyl. My 4 cyl there are right there in plain site, these I can't even see???????

This should have "coil on plug". So on each head should be 3 coils, you have to remove the coil to get to the plugs.

Not sure, not there to know the extent of the mis fire?

ran codes, about 14 popped up. however, we checked the coils, and it turned out to be one of the coils after all. disconnected it while running and made no change in sound, therefore making it the faulty coil. thanks to you alls help and hope this will help someone else. the coil was only 49$. saved me alot probably. thanks!
