When Cylinder 3 misfires it could be due to a number of things such as a bad coil, bad spark plug, bad spark plug wire or a bad distributor cap if your vehicle has a distributor cap.

Misfires are usually caused by one or more of those components that make up the ignition system on a vehicles engine causing a weak spark to be produced.
