Any nasty noises coming from your engine? Like...shaking-a-can-of-rocks noises? Lose any spark plug tips lately? I'd do a compression check on that cylinder. It could only be one of the valves, or the piston. Unless the motor ingested something. Better check this quick before the problem gets really expen$ive... :eek:
