Default P0303 code cyl 3 misfired

I have a code P0303 (misfired cyl 3 it's the one closest to the firewall passenger side)(learned that here)
So I have changed the spark plugs runs a little better but didn't fix the problem.
Tomorow I will replace the wire set hopefully it will fix the problem..$54.00
If not I guess I'll have to replace the coil pack... $74.00 If it's not the problem I think it's gonna cost big bucks.
If anyone has any more ideas that can help me fix this problem you are more than WELCOME...

Thank

Usually when it is a specific cylinder #3 in your case it's either a plug or a bad plug wire .

Default Yoou were right

1-I replaced Spark plugs(Champion Platinum)

2-replaced the Wireset,(Duralast) +-$25.00 they told me at AutoZ. that they were as good as Bosch..
and no change...

3- So I bought a coil and it fixed the problem. coil was $62.00 at AutoZ.

Have I bought the right stuff or should I have bought more expensive, better quality parts.

Just tought I would let you know how I fixed my problem.

Thank you

Champions aren't my favorite plugs I like Autolite or Motorcraft
seem to do well , but i'm glad you got the #3 fixed .
