Misfire

Trying to narrow down what i need to do for a 1993 300e 2.8 m104 starts up but only fires sparks from middle ignition essentily running on 2 cylanders it is not ignition coils as ive swapped them and only when a coil is places in the middle will it fire these are all my codes Socket 6- 3,4,6,8,9 Socket 8- 4,8,11,13,21,22,28 Socket 14- 3,9,14, My throttle and harness have already been changed out and ive heard in another thread that a bad crankshaft position sensor would cause the two outer inginition plugs not to fire

Should be good.

Sorry, no experience with that engine type. I barely know anything about M104.980 and M104.99x.
