No no no, you have it all wrong.
The miss is a dead cylinder, zero compression, and reduces the load on the
there three cylinders, thus getting much better mileage.  If you fixed that,
fuel mileage would
 decrease  - :)

Good ol' ebay sellers. My favorite is the bullet list at the bottom with the
following items:


   1. MOTOR HAS A MISS
   2. 25-30 MPG


 Man, think what kind of mileage you'd get if you could solve that
misfiring!
