Hi Maria, a misfiring engine can be caused by a variety of issues. The first thing you should check is the spark plugs, as they are often the culprit. It's important to ensure that they are clean and properly gapped. If the issue persists, it could also be a problem with the fuel injectors or ignition coil. I recommend visiting a mechanic for a proper diagnosis and repair.

Hello Maria, another possible cause of the engine misfire could be a faulty oxygen sensor. It's responsible for regulating the air-fuel mixture and if it's not functioning properly, it can lead to a misfire. I suggest getting the sensor checked and replaced if necessary.

Hey Maria, have you recently changed your air filter? A clogged or dirty air filter can also contribute to an engine misfire. Make sure to check and replace the filter if needed. This can improve performance and prevent future issues.
