Not sure what you mean by "caps"...boots? Coils?

I believe 2 is on passengers side closest to the front of the car. Check your plug gap on that cylinder (my misfire seems to have gone away by changing gap to .026), swap coil with another cylinder and see if problem moves, and make sure the connector is on tight.

Like I said man, the first thing I would check is the plug gap. I cant believe how good my car runs with the plugs at .26 vs .30...not sure what you're running now.

Was it you who was saying your alternator was going out?

Well g/l man, I hope you find it. Like I said earlier move that coil around and see if the problem moves.
