    YAY!!! A PO306 CODE from my 99 Cobra.......

    It just started today and it coded out as a PO306, "Cylinder 6 Misfire." My thoughts are that it could be the cop, plug, a wire. OR it could be the plug has been blown out and the spark plug threads have been stripped. Afterwork, i'm going to check cylinder 6 and see if the plug will...
