engine problem
Been having an issue with check engine light coming on and reducing power. This only comes on while in wide open throttle. Misfire in cylinder 5. Help please. Is it an intake problem or do I need new spark plugs?

Take a look at the plug to see if it fouled. These delco plug are pretty durable though. Then I would swap the ignition coil to see if the problem moves. Usually one of the two.
Then depending on the milage you have I would seafoam the intake. It seem when these direct injection cars get coked up on the valves it's cylinder 5 that gets it first.

The car has 36k miles on it and a catch can.
