...yep. Cuz I kayak!

Anyway, besides the helpful suggestion above, can anyone shed ideas? I'm gonna move the #2 coilpack around to see if the misfiring follows, but it seems like all cylinders have carbon fouling. Also, the car fired up after the addition of oil, and a tiny amount at that. I'm getting some puffing of vapor out the exhaust, but I'm assuming thats due to me running VERY VERY rich. So any ideas? I dont want to go out and buy a new coil pack just to find thats not the issue.

So I asked this before: if my fuel pressure regulator vacuum line got a leak, would it cause my car to run rich or lean? Would it be dramatic? I tapped into this line with a no buzz T fitting as per APR's instructions, but I'm trying to rule out all possiblities. I'm hoping my ECU hasn't fucked itself up somehow and that it isn't giving bad info on fuel/air ratios.

Okay, moved the coil pack and still got a cylinder 2 misfire. Also switched the spark plugs and the cylinder two misfire remained. Now I'm at a loss for my next move. Compression test? What could have gone bad? Could my ICM cause one cylinder wire to not be firing?
