Our 1.6T Tucson has 104k on it. Driving down the highway tonight going up a grade it rattled and then went full misfire.
Pulled over and pulled the coil harnesses off and put them back on one at a time while engine was idling (poorly) #3 had no change. Walked to harbor freight and grabbed some cheap tools. Pulled the plug and it was melted down.
Went and got another plug and installed it but it didn’t help. Limped it home on 3cyl. When I got home I pulled #3 and it was wet with gas and oil. The other three greasy white. It isn’t smoking so I’m assuming a valve probably also took a hit and is leaking off compression.
I’ll be having it torn into. Hopefully the engine isn’t completely trashed.
