cylinder 2 misfires
 

My car (99 VW 1.8T) started to have a rough idle few days ago. I changed the spark plugs, did a vag-com at a friend's house that read cylinder 2 Misfire Detected. Probably Reason: Low Fuel. Switched the coil pack with the one from cylinder one, did the vag-com again and readings stillindicate cyl 2 misfire.
I also noticed that the voltage at the second spark plugseemed to be about 50% higher than the other three (1 point something for the 1, 3 and 4 and 2 point something at plug 2)
I'm thinking that the injector might be dirty so I added some injector cleaner in the gas tank this morning and drove it to work (about ten miles so I think it's too soon to tell if it works ) Except for that what else could it be?
Thank you

Is your CEL on? Most likely it's your ignition control module. Fairly cheap to find online, and one minute to replace.
