I have just found out my vz calais isnt firing on the rear passenger side cylinder. I have swapped plugs with no change. Then swapped coils no change. Even tried rear o2 sensors. Anybody have some ideas of what may be causing this

If the injector is cactus the ECU will turn of the coil for that cylinder. Check the codes, and check the injector. Hope that helps.

Not firing will either be fuel or spark. You have eliminated spark, so check fuel. Swap the injector to another cylinder and see if the miss moves with it.

I had a VE alloytec with a miss, the problem was the pins in the plug to an injector had opened up. Closing the pins fixed it.

All fixed. Number 6 injector Was 95% blocked. Fuel filter was blocked. Cleaned all injectors changed filter and blew out fuel lines. Runs like a dream now. Thanks for the advice really appreciate it
