HELP!!!

My 2002 c240 160000 miles has a misfire on cylinder 4 i tested all injectors with noid light they all show light on and off so they all work and get current but as soon as i step on gas on park and rev up to 4 rpms or drive up to 40 mph my CEL comes on misfire cylinder 4 so i checked before like i said with noid light it works and after the misfire i checked with noid light again and injector for cyli der 4 is not firing light wont come on so it works when i reset CEL but as soon as i rev up to 4 rpms CEL comes back any ideas if my ECU is bad?

Sparkplugs?
Plug wires?
Ignition coils?

Did did you read codes? It's shutting off the injector to protect the catalytic converter because your spark plug isn't firing. Check the connection between the wiring harness and ignition coils.

w203 , w204
First swap the coil from 4 to 3 turn on the motor that's it for the misfire goes to number three cylinder and then the fault is the coil.

If the misfire stays on number for them swap the spark plug from number 4 to number 3 cylinder.

If the misfire goes to number 3 cylinder then the faults in the spark plug if the misfire stays on number 4 cylinder then swap the injectors from 4 to 3 cyclinders.

If the misfire goes to number 3 cylinder replace the injectors however if it still stays on number 4 you have either an ECU problem wiring harness problem or the valves are carbon up.

Let us know how go
