    Ok so along with my misfire on cylinder 5. I've noticed when I put it in reverse it sounds like a rubbing or something coming from the front of the engine maybe from the drivers side. Its not low on oil. I pulled the #5 plug 3 weeks ago after changing it a month before that and that was like burnt up. I know its running lean but west would cause that noise?

    check the motor and tranny mounts. most shifting in and out of gear clunks lead to them.
